Cool, theres some great suggestions in that post. 27" and horiziontal is not a problem for me, I'll either convert it to 700c or build up replacement wheels with some good quality 27" rims. What I'm after is something classic (not a new Soma, Surly, etc.) due mostly to price, with eyelets for racks and fenders, and is not a clunker for non-touring applications.

Any other specific suggestions on particular frames would be very helpful.
