Caught me a Zunow

EDIT: NEW PHOTOS ON NEW POST

I have been looking for some time and was lucky enough to find one of these for sale on Craigslist (many miles away). I arranged for the seller to drop it off at a LBS and I would forward a check and he released the bike to ship when he received the check. Worked like a charm.

In any case, it is a "beautiful" Zunow Z1 in excellent condition (beauty is in the eye of the beholder). There are a couple of small chips around but other than that the paint and bike are immaculate. There is a hodgepodge of components but most are good. I believe the drive train is early Chorus but none of the catalogs exactly match what the parts look like.

The Zunow has some great details which all show when I have time to take photos with a proper camera. for now these bad photos will have to due.

I think it is time for me to get rid of these "cheesy" Italian components and get this 80s baby (named "Crockett") outfitted with some proper Japanese components. I am thinking Suntour Superbe Pro or Dura Ace AX but leaning towards Superbe Pro. I'll probably be putting these components up for trade in the near future. The wheels are nice MA2 laced to Suntour Cyclone with spokes with a"P" on them. Any idea what those are?

Here are the bad photos...
