Garbage Picker: My first dumpster dive

I was out at the dump today dropping off a ton or so of old wood decking (how else would you spend a holiday weekend?) and noticed someone dropped an old (1971 Schwinn Varsity) in the pile to be buried forever. I am not a Schwinn expert by any means but it looks to be a 70's varsity with all original components. It does have a dent in the chain stay although not a big one. I will put up a picture if anyone cares. Pity someone tossed it. I may just clean it up and donate it to our local Bike Kitchen. The paint is in good shape - just need a good cleanup. I love the deep drown original color. It even has the Schwinn tires on it.

edit: it is a 1971 EG096592 if anyone cares...
