My "New" Track bike

My LBS used to be owned by a guy called Shane. He'd only taken over the shop for a couple year's when he was diagnosed with a brain tumor, and he died last year. His brother and father now run the shop and they have recently started selling Shane's old bikes.
I had gone in to see if they could help me re-fit an old Raleigh Hack/fixed when I saw this. I would have had to spend 50-130 pounds to get the hack working, they only wanted 50 for the track bike.
Origionally it had a freewheel on the back wheel, tubular tyres, and the front brake came apart on me on the way home (joy!). I'm thinking of swapping the freewheel on the tubs to a fixed and running with the tubs (once I get spare tubs, tufo tape and scealant) but for not I'm running spare wheels with 700*25 tyres (and paper-thin clearances). I need a longer seatpost though.

Yeah, looks like the track ends are really short, almost as iff they've been sawn off for some reason.

Love the grease port on the BB shell. That the original chainring? It looks great.
