Looks to be a lower end bike, made in Austria. I can't find anything on it anywhere. Not a Gitane. Has a gorgeous metal spoke protector.

No, no photos. I was just curious. It was listed on Craig's List with no photos. I'm kind of hunting around for my next project bike and just wanted to make sure this wasn't some unique bike. I did phone the guy, but he said there's no stickers on it besides the name stickers and "made in Austria". He said it has a gorgeous metal spoke protector, but it also has low end Shimano Eagle front der and I forget the rear der. Has Suicide levers and stem shifters. I don't think it's worth the trip to go see it, but I just wanted to check.
I know it's not the gitane because it has "Kingsman" on it, and I didn't see any of the other Hosteller posts refer to that.
