Is it truly worth the effort...

...to garbage pick and drag home this clapped out POS Favorit rust bucket just to reef off the clamp-on Suntour ratcheting shifters? It was so corroded that nothing budged except the shifters and the forks. The cool girder stem was slammed down hard but what the heck, I loosened the nut and voila,it was fully lubed and slipped right out. The levers are cool looking as well. I prised one QR from a wheel just cuz I could. This is kinda pathetic behaviour but I like it anyway.
Now to get the stem and bars free from the steel shim.
