K8drums, that bike will be hard to identify. Those components are not likely to have come together originally on a bike. The bike was pieced together at least once. And the shoddy work done on it might obscure things even more.

The derailleur hanger's threads look stripped, though you may be able to salvage them. I suspect the frame is going to give you a lot of surprises, so to speak. If the fixed cup was in on the wrong side, the threads may be ruined. There are probably remedies to that, but your work may exceed the value of a replacement frame. Just a warning.
