Certainly a difficult decision.

I'll throw my vote in for a partial resto. Clean-up the rust, and hopefully bring out the intricate and beautiful graphics on the frame, get the needed parts and make it rideable again. It will make a great conversation piece and it would be a real kick to take a spin on that when you want!
