eBay / CraigsList finds - "Are you looking for one of these!?" Part II
Top Seeded Amateur
After repaint and replacement of the usual (cables, housing, toe straps, chain, Michelin tires ofc, etc.). Decals all under clearcoat but the chevrons (stripy bits on head and seat tube) are painted. I did replace the Stronglight headset with a Chris King.

Not cheap, but I remember seeing a post a few years ago about the number of 720s produced in 1985. For the 25.5" frame, I believe there were less than 100 originally for the US market.

A little pricey, but looks pretty clean and well cared for. Appreciate the full description too.
Facebook MN Gitane TdF
1973 Gitane Tour De France. "Club Green", Reynolds 531, 60cm c-c. Best for riders 5'11-6'1". Seat tube is 60cm c-c, 61.5 c-t. 58cm top tube c-c, 33 3/4" stand-over height. Just completed preservation, overhaul and conditioning. Some paint scratches, but overall in very nice condition with no dents or damage. The "Club Green" paint really pops in the sun and has a nice patina. Chromed fork tips and rear stays are perfect with no rust and the decals have survived pretty well. The combination of the geometry and the Reynolds 531 tubing on these TDF bikes makes them light (23.4lb), agile and comfortable. I've been riding one since 1995 and it's probably my favorite bike. The original tubular (sew-up) rims were swapped out for 700c 23mm wide Super Champion alloy clinchers. With the 700c wheels, 700x30 max tire width, 25/26c with fenders, single eyelets for fenders/racks front and rear. Also added some parts in the spirit of the original ones including a nicely broken in Ideale leather saddle, early Laprade fluted seatpost, NOS Hunt Wilde white genuine denim cotton bar tape, Suntour Cyclone front derailleur and new 700x28c Michelin Dynamic Classic tires/tubes. See full component specs below. Cash or Venmo. Thanks for looking! Specs: Frame/Fork: Reynolds 531, Prugnat medium point lugs, fish mouth open brazed stay and fork ends, Forged Simplex dropouts, chromed lower rear chainstays/steastays. Single eyelets front and rear for rack/fender mounting. Nervex "Dubois chromed fork crown, chromed lower fork blades, Simplex forged dropouts, open "fish mouth" fork end brazing, single eyelets for racks/fenders. Headset: Original Stronglight P3 Handlebars: Belleri 41cm c-c alloy, w/ stamped crests Stem: Atax forged alloy, 90mm Bar Tape: NOS Hunt Wilde white genuine denim cotton bar tape, NOS Bluemels end plugs Wheels: Super Champion 700c x 23mm wide alloy clincher rims, Maillard hubs, stainless spokes, new Michelin Dynamic Classic 700x28c tires Brake Levers: Mafac Brakes: Mafac Racer Rear Derailleur: Simplex Competition Front Derailleur: Suntour Cyclone (way better tan the original derailleur) Shifters: Simplex Competition Chain: Sedis Freewheel: Original Maillard/Normandy 14-28 5 speed Crankset: Stronglight 93, 42/52 alloy rings in exc cond, 170mm arms, no arm rub/wear.

Rough paint. Cheap full 531 alert, though.
Needs a cleaning and service, but has a ton of high end parts. Rides and holds air.
