The Huret short dropouts made their debut in 1977, however I believe that headbadge style first appeared in 1978. The down and seat tube logo style first appeared in 1981, on the La Redoute-Motobecane team bicycles and was used on the team bicycles until their demise, circa 1985. However, the ones on the seat tube do not appear lined up, as if they had been applied letter by letter, so they may not be OEM. Based on the characteristics, pending further evidence, it appears to be a very late 1970s, European model, either upper mid-range or lower, high end. Could you post a picture of the chain stay and seat stay bridges? TIA.

Edit: A photo of the fork ends/dropouts would be appreciated also.
