[WTD] Interesting steel frame...?

I've been on the lookout for an interesting road frame for a while, but haven't found anything...

• 54 top tube
• Tatty is fine
• I like off-the-beaten-track type stuff rather than the traditional, I'm thinking Voodoo, Salsa...
• I'm also thinking 853, true temper...

Anyone got anything they've stopped using?
 
... and still would do if it hadn't have been so back-breakingly long.
I bought it on the seat-tube length, turned out to be semi-compact, didn't it...

Frame 50cm compact 1999/2000 Gazelle Superbe serial: TVM08 ... Columbus foco tubing.
Matching Gazelle Alu Carbon Forks
Frame was nos but paint was chipped(ant touched up) and there are 2 very small dents - photos can be provided
Use Alien Carbon post
ultegra 600 headset
Matching time pedals with cleats

Is a compact but still might be a little small but I could measure it up if you are interested.
 
Still looking! - in the windmills of my mind I am thinking:

853 Lemond (but an all-853 one, not with stays that are made of something else - Zurich maybe?)
GT Edge 853
A La Raza (yeah, right)
Voodoo Rada (not holding my breath for one of those either)

Anyone got anything like this? - it'll be going to a good home, will probably end up at Argos and will inherit a handsome groupset.
