Thanks for posting this interesting Flandria.

The plate style bridge suggests a rock bottom model.

The Huret shift levers it wears did not launch until the second half of the 1970's so if bike from 1961 this component at least is not original. Wonder if it could be one of the Portuguese produced contract machines.

Did seller have any additional images?
