Mystery Peugeot Found. Unknown Model. Never seen one designed like this...
Can someone please help me identify this Peugeot? I know it is a Peugeot from the sticker on the headtube. That's about all I know. A quick search online produced zero results. Sheldon Brown didn't even have anything about it. I'd like to figure out what model it is and know if it has good tubing. Seems to be very robust - in very good condition overall with no dents. The bright orange paint is in good shape with just a few nicks. Maybe I can get my crayons or watercolors out and fix that up. I looked for a serial # but didn't see one anywhere. Pedals say "Made in Italy" but they look original. I hope that doesn't detract from it's potential value. Tires look like they are in decent shape - seems like the rubber is a little hard but I think they came that way. Hoping to put some new Continentals on it. Are Orange sidewall tires available in that size? Nice shiny chrome fender over the front wheel. Seat tube and stem are adjustable. I'm guessing French threading throughout. I'm a little worried about the size. Hoping I don't have a problem getting replacement parts... Anyone know a value on this? I hope I didn't pay too much.
Any help would be appreciated. Not sure if I'm going to keep it or flip it. Already Accepting offers...
