I have an 88 Strada I've been riding for 12 years. Currently full commuter, 27x1 1/4, fenders, burley rear rack (sometimes a Kazoo). Still using the downtube indexed 2x6. It rides nice, the derailleur was finally replaced last summer after it blew up and caused some spoke replacement and a rear wheel re-true.
I've got an extra 10 speed wheelset hanging around, it might get modernized this spring, still not sure.
