My it's a Tour de France, my guess is a 1972model, here's why:

The headset is the defining feature between Super Corsa and Tour de France frames. The SC frames had Campy headsets while the TdFs used Stronglight P3 headsets. There is an 8mm+ difference in the stack heights. The P3 has a 33mm stack height while the Campy is 41mm!

A few TdFs came with Campy dropouts on the rear. They also used at least 3 different styles of Simplex dropouts plus some European frames used proprietary Huret dropouts that only worked with Huret derailleurs.

Many TdFs and SCs had Huret fork ends which were identical to Campy dropouts.

After 1972 Gitane discontinued the brazed on rear brake cable bridge. That was the peak of the bike boom and it was a time saver. They also switched from long point Prugnat S4 lugs to medium point Bocama Pro lugs.

Gitane discontinued the brazed-on willow leaf shaped seat stay caps after 1971 and switched to swagged tops.

The decals are repops from Cyclomondo (Greg Softly) that are sold on eBay. The paint looks like a rattle can job. The socks (lower parts of the fork blades and rear triangles) were 1/2 chrome plated on pre 1974 TdFs and SCs. They've been painted over probably because the chrome was rusted.
