A Schwinn Suburban is calling me

I'm already into a couple projects, and this one would further distract me, but there is a decent, original mid-70s Suburban for $50 in the next town over. I've always liked the look of old Schwinn filleted frames, whether it's electro-forged or fillet-brazed. This one is in direct competition to my Raleigh Sports cellar-rescue project. Do I need 2 cruiser-style bikes? Of course not, but the ad has been up for some time now and for $50 (probably less if I wanted), it deserves to be rescued.
Someone please talk me out of this!!
