Offer a bit less as you'll be replacing the rusty chains, among other stuff. . .
Just our input.
Thanks Rudy and Kay! I've already got a number in mind and it is definitely lower than that asking price. It's funny, but everybody mentions that rusty chain. It seems out of place given the overall condition of the bike. The seller called a short while ago and does not think the bike has been repainted and the chrome appears to be in good condition, so it's a mystery why it looks as it does.

BTW, my bride and I have a few years to go before we come close to the longevity of your marriage, but we're coming up on 25 years now which is a big accomplishment.
