Get me into a new bike, probably a rigid MTB/69er

Alright SSFG, I'm feeling the need. The want. The yearning for another project.

The problem, however, is that I have two bikes that serve the same purpose, essentially.

Exhibit A---Commuter/lock up bike


Exhibit B---My "Go fast" bike


Run them at different ratios, but I'm feeling the urge for a MTB, or city bike. Another commuter, of sorts. With racks and a rigid frame, but no cantilever brakes. There's no need in my area.

I have the option to take hold of a free NEXT frame---Boxstore brand---minus wheels and it has rusted components. But I have enough parts to make it come to fruition.

I'm conflicted. And the CL in the area offers no hope. One page goes all the way back to Dec. All pretty much the same frame.
