      Unfortunately, in that condition, the bike isn't worth much, the 'tank' is probably worth more than the bike as a whole. The cost to restore it would probably be more than the bike would ever be worth.
      I have restored several bikes for people where the sentimental value was more than the cost to restore, meaning to the owner it didn't matter how much it cost they wanted 'their old bike' back.
