BTW: Vintage Paramounts are available for less than what your posted sellers original listing was. Matter of fact, I personally purchased one off of this BF sale section with Campy. The bike actually was talked considerably about but apparently the takers just didn't grab it. Seller then advertised a lower price and I'm very thankful for it--

Cheers!
Yeah, large frame definitely worked in my favor, as it has with all my bikes. Nice score on your Paramount, haven’t found anything close to that, in a large frame.
