Depends on what you mean by "quality." It's not a bike I would personally judge on workmanship - any more than I would a 70's Paramount. And frankly, that wouldn't be an issue with me, assuming it looks good from 10 feet. IMO, the clean ones with original bits are often a good deal. I'm not aware that they're so badly built or assembled that they don't ride or function acceptably.
