I've been wanting to put together a fixie for short city trips so I found this Peugeot that my LBS is going to convert for me. Just curious what it is.

I reckon that's probably the original Ava handlebars and Ideale seat, and I think the braze pattern places it in the early '60s? The tires are clinchers, and I don't know enough about cranks and gears to say whether or not those are original, but I suspect not. I don't really know much about old bikes, but I'm excited about this one, I think it'll be a lot of fun to ride and I can't wait to clean it up once they get the new gear set on.
Any of you more knowledgeable people have more info?
