Flandria was a bike built in West Flanders, Belgium. Yes they built some nice real racing bikes that some of the Belgian pros rode.
The Ca Va Seul team in Belgium raced on Flandrias.
However most of the ones imported into the states in the 70s were some of their lower end models. See what kind of tubing sticker is on the bike, plus componentry; that may give you a clue.
