Probably easiest to copy and paste the evilbay description to let you know what I did to this...

Vintage 1977 Peugeot PR-10 Bike (95% original).
Reynolds 531 tubes (main triangle).
Simplex drop outs.
Size 24.5 inch (612mm) from centre of the bottom bracket to top of the seat tube.
Atax Guidon Philippe bars 400mm wide with Velox cotton tape (new) and Velox plugs (original).
Atax stem (110mm).
Mafac Racer centrepull brakes and levers. Mafac hoods (front brake hood crack/split repaired with glue)
One washer replaced on the front Mafac racer brake caliper as the original snapped during refurbishment.
Simplex downtube shifters and rear derailleur (full metal rear derailleur).
Huret Sachs front derailleur (about 5 years later) as the plastic (delrin) Simplex derailleur had snapped - I will include the old Simplex derailleur if the buyer wants to try to glue it.
Stronglight TA crankset with 52/42 rings.
Lyotard pedals with Christophe cages and nylon straps.
Mavic Module E rims laced to Normandy large flange hubs.
New Michelin tan wall 700c 35mm wide tires and new tubes.
Sedis chain.
5 speed freewheel 14-24 tooth.
SanMarco saddle.
New cables and outers.

All disassembled, cleaned, polished and repacked (except the bottom bracket - but spins freely). Tubes treated with Waxoyl spray inside.

One owner since 1977.

Refurbished by an enthusiastic amateur who would be happy to ride it but would advise a once over by a professional mechanic.
