I don't think it's a Gazelle.. Framenumber thing doesn't add up.. It should've been stamped with Gazelle to be a Gazelle.. Also, although fork crowns look/are identical, clearance is not.. Put a wheel in it, you'll see.. I believe in th OG FS thread there was a picture with wheels.. That was one of the things that put me off from buying it when it came for sale again, besides having already bought another frame.. ;)
Also, wrapover stays should wrapover totally for a Gazelle, like in touching each other in the middle.. Also, Gazelle lugs are cutout, from pic 1, that's not the case..
I believe someone mentioned what the forks were in the FS thread.. Too lazy to look it up.. Maybe that's a connection to look further..? I'm convinced it's not a Gazelle.. (I own 2 from that era, no track though..)
My 2p. keep as is, slap on nice components (with restecp to frame.. fluted cranks, box rims, etc), have a-awesome rat!
