I assume the other frame is French threaded too, and if you are building it for yourself consider replacing the steel rims at the same time.
The frame is a nice color and desirable size, but I am still afraid the sale of the frame won't do much to defray the costs of the build.

Then again, if you are a fan of classic cottered cranks, leather saddles and Mafac centerpulls, then you could have a lovely French ride for not a lot of money.
