Old MIYATA frame. Help identifiying year...

Hi all!
This is my first post.

I have an old MIYATA frame with fork that I want to convert to single speed.
The code on the bottom is: D602974. Wich year is it?
Is it a race frame or a standard road frame? To wich range does it belong to (low/medium/high) ?

Thanks in advance!

Bye

1975 Miyata MX-M. Entry level, hi-tensile steel frame, intended for recreational touring. 2nd from the bottom of the line.

Thanks alot T-Mar.. the guru!

I will convert it to fixed in a 'cheap' way, considering that the frame is an entry level and I guess it doen't worth to invest a lot on it.
