Very unusual, uh, seat cover...? It looks to be in great shape, but I'm not sure it's very high end. Post some better photos showing different parts of the bike (esp. from the drive side) and you'll get more feedback. I'm guessing this is a 70s bike boom bike.

Bikes: No-name LH drive track. Also ride an Exxon Graftek, a Masi, a Trek R200 or a RR Boneshaker for fun!

IIRC that is a sweat guard to keep from corroding the frame when ridden on rollers bitd. Agree on all else and would add that the steel cottered crank and spoke disk do not come on most bikes above low end. Nice bit of cycling history, though, maybe not in bad shape if oo was so careful to avoid sweating on the bike...
