The rear Derailleur is a Suntour ARX, DeOre front de railleur. Brakes. Decompe. O22 decals on fork and seat stem tube. I have pictures not sure where I can post yet. My friend in Spokane states it appears to be in pretty good shape. I was a bit disappointed with the clean up the bike shop did. They charged me $587 for brake and wires. New chain, seat and tires. I dont know if they greased the crank. I working on removing the small amounts of rust. I retired so just getting into biking.

Ishiwata 022 is more than decent tubing.
If it fits (looks like at most a size 54 to me) an excellent introduction to the hobby.
While admittedly I have no idea of the going rate in Dallas bike shops, or any bike shop at all for that matter, I think that you overpaid for the work they did.
Regardless, I wish you many happy hours in the saddle.

It looks like a nice bike.
Not sure what your question is since you have already had a shop fix it for you
