Dear bike pilots:

I used to have an old vintage Motobecane bike that regretfully got stolen some 8 years ago. Now, I found an ad for a Jeunet, costing about USD55.00 (EUR45.00). After seeing some vintage bikes, I was really thrilled to get it back in shape, but is it worth it? Ie, can I expect it to be an everyday runner (keeping the 10 gears). Never heard of Jeunet before. If restored, can this bike become a "gem" that I can sell to a bikelover at a later stage? Or is it a bad start to begin with? (Someone mentioned in one of the forums they picked up them cheap at USD8.00 at JC Penneys?)

Any special things I should look for when checking the bike out?

Any answer or feedback would be appreciated!
