Otherwise, the frames look similar, though I can't tell if your seat stays are attached near the seat post with a flattened part that is welded on... Wish I had a picture handy. EDIT: Found a better photo online. This is what the seat stays look like.
Mine don't look like that at all! You can see them more clearly here (if you blow up the photo a bit). They look like the stay just sort of ended at the down tube. Weird. I wonder if mine was some odd custom build or something. But who would deliberately make a touring bike without a water bottle braze-on?
