It arrived today in fine fettle. I believe it's a 531 frame; the 26.6 seatpost (that's what it is) suggests that. Probably mid-seventies. Model 472? Bocoma lugs, simplex drops. The rust is largely limited to the frame; the chrome is in superb condition. Rust is completely surface; overall, the frame is fine. Pretty blue-grey colour. It'll likely sit for a bit and then I'll get a wild hair and build it up; I've got the parts lying about and always enjoy a good build.
