Tom... what information do you need about a 1957 Peugeot PLX-10 (from the sound of it) other than my address and preference for DHL or FedEx delivery?? It's even the year I was born and my birthday is this Thursday and...

But seriously, sounds a nice find. Serial numbers on Peugeots mean as much as well.. serial numbers on Cinellis. But in all of the confusion about the various Peugeot models over the years, I've come to one conclusion: if the frame has chromed back and chain stays, it's the genuine top o' line racing bike.

Here is the 1958 catalogue page showing the PLX-10 as it was then known.. see how this compares to what you've found:
