Update: On Monday I took the rear wheel off to replace the punctured tube with an original n.o.s one and to figure the hub braking problem. I ended up just replacing the tube and didn't get to the hub but for some reason when I put it all back together the hub worked fine with no braking issues like before. Also I replaced the worn out handle bars with an n.o.s pair i had. I took it for a ride and it rides great!

Update: I recently sent my seat out to be redone by Bill Strong as it was the only none correct part of the bicycle. The embossing was not correct and the leather just didn't look the part. As you can see from the photos he did an amazing job on it and now the bike looks as it should. All that I am missing now are the tools that go in the tool pouch. If anyone has any for sale I would be interested in buying them.
