Torelli ID

Just bought a claimed Torelli frame. It looks like the Countach a bit, but this is probably a mid - late 80's frame I'm guessing. Fillet-brazed steel with no reinforced ring at the top of the seatube. No paint on the fork. Well applied decals look pretty authentic but the paint has definitely seen chunks of home touch-up. Any experts out there who can help me determine if this puppy is true? The serial # on the BB all numbers, 6 digits I think.

Appreciating any wise info.

Go to the Torelli web site & e-mail chairman Bill a description & picture. He will probably be able to confirm if it is truly a Torelli or not. edit: his e-mail is bill@torelli.com and they request no unsolicited attachments to e-mails so don't send a picture to begin with, just a description.
