This weekend I finally fitted my Paramount with mudguards and took some pics. It's a 1963, serial #P15 (yes, serial #, not model #). I bought it as a frameset stripped of paint and had it painted by a local guy. Replacement decals from Waterford. The parts are mostly about ten years off--they largely came from a '72 Raleigh International--wheels w/ Nisi tubular rims and Campy Record hubs, Campy NR rear mech, Campy seatpost). Titan steel stem is more period correct, but GB Ventoux bars and Weinmann levers not so much. I did find a set of Schwinn-approved Weinmann calipers in the bin. I'm currently running it as a 6-speed with a Campy bar-end shifter and Stronglight 49D crankset w/ 48t ring.
