Early French randonneur/town bike - recent find, help needed

Retro Dan

Devout Dirtbag
Hi Guys, recently picked up a super cool looking bike in France - now this is not my usual sort of thing but it was so neat I had to snap it up. I don`t recognise anything about it but the lug work is very distinctive so hope someone might know more? Mostly original, the mudguards will clean up well. Looks to me like it was refurbished in the `70`s maybe as the decals are not original and the headbadge has been changed to a local bike shop. Just love the lights/dynamo set up plus the rear rack is neatly braze to the frame - not something I`m used to seeing.

Plan is a full tear don, super clean, sort out and preservation - any ideas? Thanks, Dan.
