PTB,
While "Mimi" (my '68 Peugeot U08) has been at the cosmotoligist this summer, I have slept around with a bunch of different bikes. I have come to the conclusion that I like tall ones, skinny ones, short ones, lanky ones, chubby ones. I'm not very discriminating now that I'm well into middle age! Once I'm in the saddle and comfortable there with my leg adjustment, I quickly get used to the bike.
All this, of couse, is within some reasonable range, but what I'm trying to say is that I have re-evaluated the importance of finding the "perfect" fit. Like women, if the fit is reasonably close and you like her, your relationship with the bike should, if not "blossom," at least be workable.
Also like women, you don't have to read a book or check with your peer group. If it feels right to you, go with it! A 62cm classic frame would seem to be to tall for you, but what do others know?!
Enjoy.
