What say you learned bods ?
I think you're dealing with a 1981 or 1982 Peugeot Pro-10 or Prestige Pro-10 model. They could be ordered custom, hand-built, with a variety of choices as to frameset material, components, etc.

In the first example, a 1981 Pro-10, Germany catalog, shows the Prestige Pro-10 with the chrome fork and stays as in the OP's example.

In the second example, a 1982 Prestige Pro-10, UK catalog (made in the Valentigney special team workshop) shows that "You can choose from a list of highest-quality European components and from Reynolds 753, 531 SL, or 531 double-butted tubing. Size and colour are to your choice." Since you could choose frame material, componentry, and color, I don't see any reason why you couldn't have ordered one with Huret dropouts and a chrome head tube. Note that this one shows the Stronglight crankset shown in the OP's example.

Or, maybe not
