The fork looks like a replacement from another bike

Fluorescent green/yellow Nishiki Altron, at least it has an Altron sticker on the main tube, All components (Front and rear derailleur, brakes, cranks) are Shimano 600 except the hubs which are Shimano 105.
Here is the hinky part, the frame states Tange Prestige. The fork is white and has a sticker that claims 4130.
I can get better pictures later if needed. Looking at the serial number I'm assuming the bike is 1987+ as the serial number does not jive with 87 and under serial numbers.
Seat stays are chrome from hub to seat and crank.
Serial number AL90056803
What are your thoughts?
Have an Altron that looks very similar to yours. Believe the one I have is from the year earlier. The fork is chrome plate over CrMo steel. It has a clear coat protective layer. Yours looks like it came from another bike.
