Trek 620 touring

I have a 1983 Trek 620 touring bike. After over 25 years of use, the frame’s Dupont finish is still in almost mint condition. A friend had the ’84 620 and it had some nice improvements. Wish I’d been able to afford a 720!

I've been lurking for almost a year now and this thread 80's bikes caught my eye. With the mention of Miyata bikes I got thinking about one of my older bikes. I have a Path Runner (mid 80's) that was used as a mountain bike but was wondering if anyone has converted this model to a touring bike?

Hope these images uploaded okay!
Very Nice ! Condition is fantastic, the graphics on the seat tube remind me of the 1920's art deco.
