Innerestin'...probably a "fake" Merckx, but seems like a pretty darn nice Miyata, i wish I fished stuff like that from the trash! Vertical dropouts but nearly no braze-ons...seems oldish (like mid '70s) but I don't recall seeing Japanese verticals in that era, only (rare) Campy verts, and it has one set of WB bosses.
We need detail pics!
AFAIK the only other "licensed" Merckx bikes were Allegro, Falcon, and a few by his private frame builder (Kessels) before he launched his own opperation, with Ugo DeRosa's help.
