That bike sure looks like it's in great cosmetic shape. Cleaned up and tuned up you could probably flip it for a decent profit (to put toward a ssfg ) but I wouldn't advocate converting this one. Too much original good condition stuff there to strip it down and that frame really doesn't have anything that makes it more desirable than any other bike for a ssfg conversion.
Define "decent profit." Unless op tosses drops and a ss drive train on this, its not likely to sell on craigslist for more than $100-150, unless you really luck out. If op invests in drops and a ss drive train and then proceeds to sell it on cl for $200...well, grats, you made $100-150, but what did you invest on those bars and that drive train? Let this one be, pig.
