I have inherited a project bike that I would like to turn into a runabout road bike. Before rebuilding it I wondered if anyone could help identify it. It is a (badly - hand-) repainted Claud Butler perhaps from the 70-90s. It has the typical CB frame joins and was a sandy cream white. The CB logo is cheapish tinny enamel and the bike if currently a 5 speed with down bar friction lever. The brakes are weinmann side pull and the front crack is an unnamed chrome steel with cotter pin fixing. The front fork has a lamp bracket lug and there are two 'bent metal' pump lugs under the cross bar.
Both wheel fittings have lugs for mudguards or luggage racks but there is no lower lug for a rear deraillieur. The rear deraillieur is missing so provides no help in identification.
Any other hints gratefully recieved.
