I have a green Grand Prix frame and fork that I never built up, maybe someday . I am not sure about the Gazelle designation , but mine says Made In Holland. I read somewhere that the bike boom in the late sixties through the early seventies overwhelmed the Nottingham factory so they made theses in Holland , Ireland , and even Japan. Joe
