Hi all, long time lurker round here. Hope I can get some advice/help 
This is an old Saracen frame that I've had since about 1993/94 - it was given to me by a mate, had been debadged, and had no components on it.
It has been through many incarnations over the years, I had it as a single speed beater bike at Uni in 1996 (way ahead of my time!)
For the last few years my dad has had it built up as a winter hack bike using a variety of old components he had lying around. I have no idea what the forks are - he thinks he bought them in Italy :?
I'm thinking of building it up, and getting some decals, etc. The paint is in remarkably good nick considering it's age and past use! I've got most of a 1992 Suntour XC Pro groupset - mechs, Brakes, levers, thumbies, cranks + Pace rings, BB (these all came off my old Explosif Pro - sadly stolen), and the wheels now on it are really nice 1991 XT hubs and Alessa rims. I also have some nice black Spinner forks that will suit it.
Anyway - can anyone tell me what model it is and a year? All help greatly appreciated. The code on the BB is - 0S03 0907 and there's a J on the other side. Here's some photos:
