Thoughts on value? I am thinking of checking it out. Would have to be a flip...it's gigantic. I think it's a 1984 and looks to be original, though no DS pics.

Better deal as a keeper than flip. Depends on what value you put on your wrenching time? Frame looks good. Looks like it might need tires. Does need cables, re-grease, etc. Rust will take some time and elbow grease, headset looks like chrome might be gone in spots, bars might end up with some pitting. Hard to say what it would bring cleaned up in this current bike market, will need a tall buyer.
