That cottered crank was razorblade sharp right where your ankle bone pokes out. When I rode in sandals or without socks, it would neatly plane off the skin about the size of a quarter. It seemed that it always happened just as the old injury was about healed.

With a set of decent rims, better brakes, and a shifter that didn't slide down the frame tube instead of moving the derailleur, it wouldn't be a bad piece. Post pics if you have any.
