Also keep in mind you may not want to put that amount of time and labor into that bike. 6 speed stuff came out in the late 70s and early 80s so even in the mid 2000s it was quite outdated and the quality is going to be pretty low. 15 years after that with it having been abused to the point the seatpost is seized who knows what other issues there are going to be. It may be fine in some other places but a stuck seatpost isn't a good sign. You could end up putting a lot of time and money towards it without getting much in return for all that time and effort.
