better pictures=better guess...but from what I can see I'd guess something mig-grade from Italy: it has some interesting clues like the very plain BB shell and the thick but chrome forkcrown. I think the brakes are nutted, yet it has under BB cable routing and water bottle braze-on bosses...yet clamp-on (Simplex) shift levers...that's strange. But with the Galli FD and what looks like a Miche rear hub (5-speed?), if those are OEM then it's something "cheap'n'cheerful" from post bike boom Italy...maybe. Besides the complete view from the drive-side, details of the dropouts, seat cluster, fork crown and all lugs will help.
