Calling for help

As a rat rod bike member you've seen your fair share of cool as feck klunkmachines and I need your input

I will soon be reopening this thread with the last touches to the klunker (once my custom mickey made headset comes) but I'm really stuck on cranksies. Part of me wants to stay one piece as I like the look and the simplicity. Love servicing them. But I also liked the idea of a rusty set of profiles, but unfortunately that deal fell through. So I looked at some cheapo 3 piece. So I'm stuck between:

Or alternatively a nice set of vintage one piece like Takagi or Odyssey

What do you think?
 
Man, you can fill a thread. How many pages since the last picture of the bike? I had to dig a little bit. You've decided on a threadless stem, right? I think that should set the tone for the build. 3 piece would be the choice for design cohesion. I've personally never gone 3 piece on an old frame, there are apparently adapters that make it all work. Have you looked into that end of it ?
