To sort it out, you will need new seat post, new tires, new stem, bar tape, odds and ends.

Those tires speak for themselves (dry rotted).

Yeah. I was in the $60-75 mindset also....I was thinking of getting it and seeing if it rides better than my Raleigh Grand Prix.
I think I have a set of 700C tires somewhere in the garage...Bar tape is cheap enough.
