Austrian Sears, should've bought it, right?

Went to the FM again, and there it was, an Austrian made Sears roadbike. Medium solid blue color, simplex deralleurs, steel rims with textured sides. I could not find a metal pedigree sticker, unfortunately. But, despite having chrome steel rims and steel cottered cranks, it weighed about the same as a CrMo schwinn with alloy rims and cranks. In other words, not a whole lot considering. No forged drops or anthing fancy, but it did have one chrome wingnut left on the left rear, and centerpull weinmanns. I didn't ask a price. If you guys think it's worth it, I will go back next week and get it. I don't imagine it will be a quick sell around here, not pretty and no suspension. It was probably $20 at the most.,,,,BD

It had top tube mounted plastic levers with metal wrap around sleeves. One of the shifters was broken off
