I definitely still see shifter bosses on there, too, so it looks like the frame is still minty.
There have been no shifter bosses on a Varsity since 1966. In '67 they moved the shifters to the stem. But LOOK! The cable stops were not plasma torched cut off! The seller has a heart!

You must be a 68 lb. weakling. That Varsity can't weigh any less then 29-30 lbs! Who can't heft that up three flights of stairs on their way to the hipster crash pad?
