Yep....they'd be near the same price.

You might look at used, too, like this little number over in Garden Grove.

It should be just about a perfect fit, sizewise at 62 cm, and is $120 and was a pretty decent sports/touring bike back in the day. I have a 1971 Nishiki Custom Sport as a Fixed Gear. Throw on a more modern wheelset and group, and you could have a primo Classic/Modern Road bike. Just have the rear stays cold set for the wider hub. Or just ride it as is as a vintage steed while you shop around for a modern road bike, too.
