This would be a good candidate for electrolysis.

Doesn't look like it would be worth too much afterward, but it does have a cool suicide shifter. These were prohibited after some year, but I don't know the date. That will help pin it down a little.

Not worth restoring. I would remove any parts you might need and then donate to your favorite bike co-op.
