Thought I found something...Moto Gran Record

Yeah, I stopped by a yard sale and found a silver Motobecane Gran Record. I've wanted a Moto for a while, so I brought it home, I sort of like this old champ, with it's Bernard Hinault saddle Sun Tour friction shifters on the down tube, Weinmann brakes, Vitus double butted frame, Phillipe stem and bar, Tange hs, and the 27x1 inch Rigida rims tied to Maillard 700 36 hole hubs and five speed cassette.
Spent the rest of the day at work day dreaming about this bike, got home, and did a search on Moto GRs in this forum. Not a lot said about them, oh well... Still wonder if I want to go fixie with it, or keep it vintage. I'd like a little more info though, it is a wonderfully light bike, next to my Schwinn World Sport, as a fixed gear I figure I'd be flying. I'll fire up the digital this afternoon and do some shots to post.
