Of course, one never knows when that special grail bike might come a knocking.
I found and kept one of the same color and labeling as shown by you:
Cranksets Sugino Maxy 3-bolt
Simplex RD
Simplex dropout with number 43610 stamped on it
Super Champion alloy rims
Normandy hubs
Weinmann 610 brakes and brake levers
Not sure of age (70's?) and tubing (Reynolds 531?)
