Subject: [CR]Info needed on Atala 3-Speed bicycle

One of my unfinished projects is an Atala 3-Speed bicycle that was taken apart years ago. I was originally going to put newer parts on it and use it as a daily rider of sorts, but I had a change of heart and so tried to find the right parts and put it back together. I found the fenders and chain guard, wheels, handlebars and stem, but I don't know what kind of brakes may have been on it, (I think maybe Universal center pulls), and more importantly, what kind of crank set it came with.

Can anyone give me some information on these bikes? My guess would be that it is from the 60's, or 70's. Pictures can be found at http://community.webshots.com/user/tenordl
