I have the same color and same size MK II with Stronglight 93, jubilee rear mech (original owner replaced front) challenger or jubilee front mech would have been from factory, and forged rear dropouts with hanger. I have also read some came with nervar star crank. The forged dropouts apparently was a 25.5" only thing (from what I have researched, so take with a grain of salt).
Keep us posted with the progress. If you repaint are you going factory color scheme?
Thank you for the additional info. Much appreciated!
I won't be repainting it in the original color scheme. One reason being that a truly correct reproduction is beyond my capabilities, the other that - to be honest - I don't really like these graphics. Also, a darker color sets off the chrome and aluminum much better.
