I like it! T-rods look good! Maybe try a stem neck bracket (push it forward and lowered a little), or fab a light bracket to fit with fork front fender mount--might be a long bracket run might affect light stability on rides.
 
I like it, it's got a great vintage hot rod look.
I wonder if you could drill holes and run the truss rods right through the headlight where the interference is. That could even help mount it.
 
Awesome bike, I know a local guy that has one just like this but it's a 60's custom. Customized by a kid then never touched.
 
So I added another small addition to my schwinn I think they tie in nicely with the wheel set nos odessey triple traps the other pedals were too narrow and hurt my feet on long rides

I use those too. Sometimes I take off the outer cage if I'm not using it for long rides.
