I have a "Dr. Deutschmark" frame.
When I got it years ago, it was in the garage of a friend. From what I have seen from your web site and links, it was completely original. Wolber wheels, Dura-Ace components, etc.
Since I was doing triathlons, I set it up with tri bars and over the years replaced worn parts to newer/better stuff.
One crash put the bar into the left side of the top tube, then another crash put the handlebar into the other side and it eventually wore out and cracked the frame around the letter "R" in Paramount. A bike mechanic put a collar on it (glue & rivet). It has ridden great ever since.
