Difficult to discern from the photos, but it may be merely, mostly, Filiform Corrosion.

I wouldn't write that frame off yet.

(I've rehabilitated and ridden worse, at least from what I can see in the pictures posted. Living and riding by the Ocean, I know most of my riders have a challenged lifespan anyway, regardless of my efforts to combat corrosion.)

Is there a Serial Number? Any remnants of a Tubing Sticker? And what does it measure? Maybe 62cm?
