Good build!
I've used red Loctite to achieve a solid connection where a pedal had stripped the threads in the arm. It held up to a lot of mtb riding, and I found it was still easy to remove using a pedal wrench when I replaced the pedals six months later. The trick is to saturate the cleaned threads of both mating parts, and give it 24 hours to set. I use a hair drier to cure the Loctite faster, good and hot makes it set up within minutes.

This reminds me of an old post of mine...
https://forums.thepaceline.net/showp...9&postcount=18 Walter pal is long gone but at least we still get to see his widow and kids every once in a while when we invite them over during the holidays like this past Thanksgiving. The last I heard, his 21-year-old son still have the bike. He said it reminds him of his dad and his love for the bike. Bikes connect people.

Very nice work! Always good to see an old bike brought back to life.
Regarding the Suntour group, I had Cyclone II on my first road bike, a Bridgestone 500. 6-speed freewheel & friction shifters. Kept that bike for a long time & it saw a few different drive trains/wheel sets while I had it. Kinda wish I still had it sometimes. It was a very comfortable frame.
