Congrats to Aaron, add'l info and a lateral thread hijack...
Peter is a gentleman, email him your serial # and he'll probably give you some info on the frame. Ser# is under the bb shell, near dt/shell junction; also stamped on steer tube. He's been building out of Belmont Wheelworks since the '70s, after arriving from the UK. He showed at NAHBS 2010 in Richmond, VA, and I think in '11 at the Philly show. Many of his show bikes somehow had ornate/sumptuous details while still being kind of understated.
I have a mystery Mooney, CyclArt repaint, very low ser# on steer tube, with bb shell ser# filled in w/paint. Peter's records for the number stamped on the steer tube show a different frame, I'm not anxious enough for info to start removing paint from the bb shell to verify ser#. He did confirm it was one of his; I suspect it might have had some bz-ons added at repaint. Tire clearances were pretty tight so I went with a 650b conversion, but even the narrowest 32mm 650b tires I could find are still pretty darn tight. Has vertical drops, decided to build it as a fixed gear using a Philcentric bb. I've posted pix here a couple times before.
Peter makes a point, my bad timing caught dude on left w/eyes closed, looks like he's snoozing:
Loved this one:
