I LIKE IT!! It's a U08 Peugeot early 70's. The 60's have a little jazzier work on the lugs. Peugeot sold a ton of them in white, blue, green, yellow...ummm..I know I've seen red in ladies bike but not mens. Nice example of early Peugeot for you collection.
I want one just like it. The yellow color...thats my favorite...and while I wouldn't call it rare...you don't see many of that color. See a ton of whites.
That Peugeot bike is what got me into bikes like I am now. HOOKED!!
A guy here in Houston has one exactly like it listed in CL and wanted $220 for it...then he went to 250...then to 180...now he is at 130. Rent is due I guess. It even has a Brooks saddle on it...aged but in good enough codition.
The guys are right...sometimes they prolly have connections to get them for 25 bucks.
I say fix it up...and keep my info..I might buy it someday if you want to get rid of it. I do want a yellow one in my collection. Like I said....IIIIII LIKE IT!
