After further observation, I noticed a few more things :

    The headset is a stronglight and seems to be original.
    The bottom bracket is a Shimano, probably added later (very clean, square ends)


I stripped off the "shimano 600" sticker. There could have been another decal here - you can still see the stains (and the shimano sticker didn't leave any)



BTW, on that same photo, you can see a small mark "G1'" on the headset tube. Does that help in any way ?

I stripped the chrome sticker on the chainstay. Nothing special under it.

I took photos of the fork so you can see the decals and the lugs



I don't think the stripping decals between the chrome and the paint are original : there is a wide gap on the inside...


A few more photo on my flickr album :
