Basically I'm getting this orbea bike and i have no idea which orbea this is, I need help identifying it so i have a rough idea of which components I'm gonna buy when I get my hands on it to restore it

No way to tell with those photos. I don’t think it’s an Orbea. If it is it’s not worth restoring. The frame looks like it’s 49 years old.It has an Orbea fork though. I hope you’re not paying more than €50.
I’m willing to put money on that as just an Orbea fork, but also I don’t know when Orbea made a threaded fork. I believe steel framed Zeus bikes were owned by orbea but wouldn’t have that fork. The frame looks like it had stem shifters at one point (cable stops on downtube) but someone put a clamp on DT shifter mount – generally lower end. I’d be very suspect of that fork setup.
Ill bet thats a Gredos. I have one. See no differences with those photos
