Hope you're sitting down Peter...

In 1983 and '84 Peugeot sold a model in Europe and the USA called the PZ 10 and PZ 10 D that was full Campagnolo (Record, Nuovo Record and Super Record mix of parts) with Cinelli bars and stem!!!

Frame was Reynolds 531 with long point lugs: http://home.wanadoo.nl/peugeotshow/images/1983_1.jpg

I don't know what other years the full Campy PZ 10 was offered, anyone know? "Tous Francaise" indeed!!!

Anyone else have info?
