Looking at the decals:
The head tube decal -according to B.Hovey's site (
http://bhovey.com/Masi/MasiBits/Head.htm)- indicates that the bike was built between 78-83.
While there is no exact match on the side tube decal -according to B. Hovey's site (
http://bhovey.com/Masi/MasiBits/STPic.htm)- it looks very much like the side decals from '84-'90.
Again, cyclotoine thanks for your help.
