Bikes: 84 Schwinn Paramount, 70's Schwinn Varsity, 70's Puegeot, Trek 4300

So I just remembered this after I did some searching about Paramounts and such. When I was getting it from the guy he said that the person who had it made for him originally had it modeled after a Paramount in a high end bike race. The reason im saying this is because the decals on my bike dont seem to be like those on the other Paramounts so I dont know for sure if this is or not. Here are some links to pictures that I just took of it.

So pretty much im not sure if this is actually a Paramount or just something someone made to look like one. Let me know your thoughts tho.
