Bikes: 8 bikes - one for each day of the week!

Here it is, my latest project. I need a bit of help in choosing a direction, and I'm sure I'll need plenty of advice. The first photo set was taken right when I got it home. Pretty sad, but looks like the rust is only on the parts that are going in the bin anyway. It's got a sticker from the original dealer in Queensland, celebrating 50 years! 1926-1976. I guess that puts the bike at around 30 years old. Some parts of Queensland are pretty dry, which would exlpain the mud wasp nest in the seat post. Since it seems to be in pretty good shape, with the exception of the rust, I'm not sure how much I want to change. Someone please tell me that it has no collector value, to just make it something I can enjoy on a regular basis.
