However, both cranksets and forks can be replaced and it's hard to imagine why a seller would claim it as a PA10 if it is something higher. It could even be a non-American market mode, which further complicates matters. In the end, just follow John E's advise and measure the seat post diameter. That will tell you if the main tubes are Reynolds 531 or hi-tensile steel.
Did you mean to say that the PA10's didn't have half chrome forks? I don't think I've seen one that didn't.
You don't really have to measure the seat post. The PA10 will have a seat lug that is cut straight off at 90° to the seat tube and the walls will be close to 1/8" thick.
