NOSish 1994 Diamondback Topanga

I just got a Diamondback Topanga off an auction site over here, the seller used to have a Bike shop years ago, he parted this frame out when it was on the showroom floor towards the end of season, it has sat in this guys shed since 1995!!!

Threads are all very nice, I will take some pics in the morning, wanted an opinion on build path, couple of questions,
Rigid threaded original fork, or A head rigid fork?
Early LX 7spd Mountain mechs with Shimano thumbies with NOS Alivio cantilevers,
Or Black LX 8spd full group Rapid fire, cantilever
Or Modern 9spd Shimano something(?) with Avid Single Digit V Brakes and levers, I do like these brakes cheap and effective.
