I'd guess Super Grand Prix, a non-531 bike. Right-ish color for the frame but the SGP usually had black panels instead of black lugs and crown paint.
Regarding the original problem with the Sprite 27, I don't have specific advice except that at our co-op I've found a few complete but uncool/undesirable machines and I've rescued more than one of them, and at the Salvation Army I've seen
perfect uncool classics not be sold in an auction and land in the dumpster. Good luck!
