Vintage Frameset Ideas for Lightish Utility?

Hello,

I am planning on building up an older, steel frameset to be a utility bike. I like the ANT designs, and am thinking Nexus 8 speed. What is a decent starting shortlist for the hunt?

Thanks

John

Just about any steel LUGGED frame will do. If it ain't lugged forget it.

Any lugged frame with Reynolds 531 tubing. That being said...I have no problem with a CroMo or even a decent quality HiTen frameset...but I have low standards:rolleyes:
