Late 70s Nishiki something or other.

So I was visiting the Bike Warehouse Outlet near Youngstown, Ohio (before they became Bike Nashbar), when I saw a nice bare steel frame with a chrome Tange fork hanging in the rafters. It was unbadged except for "Nishiki" stamped on the seat stay caps. The price ($70) was reasonable so it came home with me. Over the years it had a number of configurations but has now ended up as a 3 speed city bike after I repainted it. I want to put it on the market soon but have no idea what it might bring.

Details: Frame is straight with new headset and bottom bracket. DiaCompe calipers with straight levers. Shimano 600 crank. New wheels (Sun CR18) with New Sturmey 3sp in rear. Generic pedals, stem, saddle, bar. Thanks for your learned opinions.
