Congratulations on what was clearly a very hard fought battle. It certainly has the potential to be a very nice razor. If you want it to be pristine, you have a lot of work ahead of you. If you want a great shaver, not a showpiece, you still have a bit of work. Regardless of which direction you take, once it's hone up, you will have a very nice shaver.
Nice catch!

Well being a mechanic by trade I have everything here to get the job done. The only things I don't have are pins but I might not go that far, anyways it will be my first try at restoration on a razor.

Just make sure you take off the rust before you start honing. That way you won't have to worry about sanding close to the bevel and dulling an edge you just put on her.

Nice one! I have a couple of F. Reynolds and they're my best shavers.
