Here she is! I spent all day cleaning her and she's got some pretty significant rust but oh well! I did put a new saddle on her but everything else is original.
It's a Fuji Gran Tourer SE and I believe it's a 1981.

Thanks so much for the help!
Is there anything I need to worry about with rust on the frame or anywhere else?
It sure it pretty! Now I just need to find a cheap but good lock!

Did you ride it at the LBS? What did they say?

A Kryptonite lock isn't cheap, but it's a great way to protect that beautiful new bike of yours! They even have a replacement guarantee. Originally Posted by Jordyne

Yeah- my favorite shop checked it out and they just said it looked good. They did put it on the stand in the back. I felt bad because I didn't buy from them but used their advice. The guy checked it out and seemed to like the bike. I go to the shop a lot so I can ask again.
I actually put a WTB out on the forums to see if anyone has one of those locks to sell. As a MSW student, my budget is in the negatives.
