Bikes: All 70s and 80s, only steel.

I have a Nishiki Prestige I bought off someone that's made from Tange Infinity tubing. The thing was in near-perfect condition, barely ridden, and has a complete set of gold components--Suntour oval chainrings in gold, brownish-gold anodized 27 x 1" rims, and gold dia-compe brakes. The odd thing about it to me is the fact the brakes have their cable feeds on the right (?) side. Putting housing on it was a little bit of a challenge--the loops were just a bit off. I've wondered if the bike was brought over by the original owner (old roommate of the seller) from England or something. Anyway, it's a very nice rider.
