I have an '84 as well and I'm trying to figure out what to do with it. I originally built it up as a drop bar tourer, but my weight and load caused that bike to climb like spaghetti noodles. My paint is oxidized, but was hesitant to paint over original. I think yours pushed me to do it.
There's another thread for vintage mtb. upright/urban conversions. Check it out.
