Just for your information. I have purchased frame and forks of this vintage trek for as much as $150.00. I live in a vintage steel bike desert, but still, you got a great deal.
As for this one, if it were mine I would clean it up and ride it!
With the frames I have bought, I put new wheels, and wider bars. Other than that I like vintage set ups.
