Not to be evil but because I can always use a set of bar end shifters I would swap those out for downtube shifters. I find bar ends better but they would probably not add much to the sale of the bike as a whole.

Depends on location. Early in the spring time it could see $200. This late in the season anywhere is cold you may get $100.

As-is about $30

Some simple stuff properly set and align set the rear wheel lower the stem a half inch and raise the seat bit to get a nice top line pump tires patch tubes if needed oil the chain so it; is rideable and give it a nice cleaning and it is a $200 bike that may sell. As presented it's a $100 that likely won't sell. Also take the nice lock off and keep it if you leave it on the bike it will be basically a $40 giveaway with the keys to the new owner.
