I have no issue with a frameset made in Japan as I've had a few of those, and anything halfway decent or better from a Japanese manufacturer, in the '80s, was solid if not fantastic stuff. We have a raft of Centurion Ironman fans and owners and those later-'80s bikes proudly sport their unicrown forks, and none of them care!

And at the end of the day, if it rides the way you like it to ride and you're ok with or even thrilled with the looks, then you have a gem and you can keep it. With a Series 7 PDG bike, the higher the number meant the higher the spec all around. If it has Prestige tubing, as [MENTION=108582]RobbieTunes[/MENTION] says, then that's fantastic. 6400 Shimano bits also connote the status of the bike. I'd love a 25"/63.5cm Waterford Paramount (the one I had powder coated is a 62cm, too small), but I definitely wouldn't say no to a 25"/63.5cm PDG Series 7. Especially with those splatter and slung paint jobs.
