Got this bike free from a local bike shop that were doing a clearout. There's no serial number stamped anywhere I can see. Yvars Paris, spotty info online about them, something about 1970s entry level road bikes. Has a Campagnolo Nuovo Valentino derailleur on the rear, and another Campagnolo front derailleur. Somone clearly added new parts over the years, new pedals, saddle, brakes and a Raleigh handlebar with modern brake levers. Wheels are quite damaged on the rims from someone wheeling it around without its tubular tyres on. Wheels have no stamps or manufacturer names. I'm thinking of restoring it, the drivetrain works very well on the stand, just needs a bit of cleaning and oiling, could be a fun weekend 10speed. What do you think, 1960s or 1970s?
