My '38 Schwinn Superior Racer restoration project continues to make excellent progress. Thanks to the help of the CR list, I recently acquired a beautiful Schwinn Paramount adjustable track stem, which is correct for this bike. Now I need handlebars to fit the stem. I'm looking for deep drop steel track bars from the '30s, '40s, or early '50s. I think they should be 15/16" diameter where they attach to the stem. Given the "right" bar shape I'd be interested even if they would need replating.

I also remain interested in:

1. 26.8mm chromed steel or aluminum seatpost engraved with "Schwinn" in

script lettering.

2. '30s or '40s vintage steel or aluminum toe clips.

Thanks in advance for any and all help.
