Aaron, here are a few more pictures with better details of the decals. I'm pretty sure mine is a UO8 because of the French flag decals that come off the main Peugeot logo. The only times I've seen this online are on confirmed UO8's. And it's definitely not newer than 1980 because there are registration stickers on the seat tube and the latest one says it expires in 1980. There are a couple other stickers underneath that one.
Also, whoever owned it once upon a time raced this bike. There are stickers from the races it's been in. Apparently these races took place in Hawaii according to the stickers.
FYI, I found this bike on Craigslist. The guy was asking $200, but eventually sold it to me for $100. I had no idea what I was buying, so I'm glad it's not a completely crap bike.
Thanks everyone for your comments and help. I am completely new to road bikes and appreciate all the info I can get.
Y.
