thanks for the quick replies...any ideas on how to determine the exact model?!
it needs a LOT of work, from my novice eye...
- maybe new rear derailleur
- on the seat tube, there is a switch or lever that has been snapped off. i dont know what this is, maybe a gear shift apparatus of some sort. it's actually dangling on the chain and is a Simplex part.
- new wiring, brakes, tubes, tires
- wheels seem to be ok
- new crankset guard, chain guard
- will probably nix the stem shifters
in terms of parts, i look certainly look into keeping it all french but im not looking to break the bank here and some japanese parts (VO already has me salivating!) could prove useful.
