[QUOTE=3alarmer;21680803].
...the bike in your photo is equipped with a Nervar crank, and given the generally good condition of the paint and components, it's probably the original.
It is entirely possible that a lot of the model differences are iin components, but if you read carefully the various model pages on that French site, you should be able to find the one that matches most slearly.

Some of the other differences as you go upstream in the hierarchy are stuff like full butted Reynolds frame, versus only the main tubes....stuff like that.
I wouldn't focus too much on the model numbers in this case....by the time they got into the mid 70's most of their production was aimed at the more discerning consumer here.[/

I’m certain I will enjoy it regardless of model. I love unusual bikes.
