Trek Experts? 1985 Trek 660 (I think?)

Hey Guys,

I picked up this 660 a few months ago and have stripped it apart and just finished building it again. Was going to order new decals when I found something different between mine and the other 660s I see on VintageTreks and other google image searches.

Mine:


The difference that I keep noticing is my bike doesn't have the "USA" decal on the seat tube and my seat tube clamp bolt is located on the "outside" of the tube (I hope that makes sense). Almost every other image of this bike on the interwebs has the bolt located within the frame. I picture to explain what I mean:

Anyone know why there's a difference? Also, stay tuned for a rather long post on the completion. I'm building this as a gift for a friend and I've detailed the process and will be making a video.
