Univega Viva Sport year?

From the serial # on the BB this is a frame produced in 1982. Unfortunately I can't locate 1982 or 1983 Univega catalogs for confirmation. It is bone stock except for the saddle, handlebars, stem and brake levers.
Any help on the exact year is appreciated. Thanks!

It's a 1982 model. The rear derailleur is also a replacement. The Deore XT wasn't even available in 1982, let alone Lawee mixing Shimano and SunTour derailleurs.
