well well my friend it looks like a turbo to me, i need to see a picture from a bit further back but the seat angle looks like turbo or senior pro but with the stem as well i would say turbo excellent find. :)

it’s a Turbo, senior pro’s were outta commission by 83
Lol.. yeah doesn’t the turbo stem give the game away, then theres the black headset.
Whip the forks out and check the top of the steerer tube.. probably still showing some smoke finish.
