I can't know the history of this bike, and the Weinmann calipers are an anomaly, but I would find it unusual for such a low-end bike to have been fully repainted with all of the bearing cups carefully removed.
I think it's a 70's bike that never got ridden, with decals removed.
It doesn't look very rattle-can to me.
Could the "T" be Tano? Built for Vista sounds like a possibility.
