Its yellow and from early 70's I guess. The serial number is stamped on the seat post.

Im going to build it up with nice components. I REALLY love the 70's steel frames.
ANYHOW....any info i can get I would appreciate.

It looks just like my "Grand Prix:"
N.B. The fork is not original on mine; the frame is designed for 27" wheels with
lots of fender clearance and the brakes I wanted to use wouldn't reach. I cobbled up a drop bolt for the rear, but decided to use a different fork with less clearance for the front.
It is a nice ride -- more laid-back than my other bikes.
