Welcome to the list. No doubt P.C. 's right. The only thing I see could be original is that clamp on the headset. (clip style?) Are those 27" or 700C wheels? Think I'd plan on ditching the Shimano hub. Some crunched or neglected Raleigh Sports might make a good parts donor for this if you don't mind wheel rebuilding(check spoke counts) though you could try 590 sized wheels on this and see how it looks. Oh, yeah..... Find one for you too! ; )
