eBay and Craigslist finds

Frame rear spacing is suspect,
dropout hanger is bent on one side,
original rear hub worked but needed tlc,
brakes have zero purchase and were more like a slow fart than a stop,
Cotterpin bb snapped axle whilst riding, new shimano bb's plastic size was botched when I tried to install
Cabling was bad condition and crunchy
Extra long seatpost is sketchy

If I spend dollar on new wheels, drivetrain, pedals, post, brakes, and so on, it would probably still be bad because of the rear triangle being such soft metal. It's an old cheapo imported Hungarian folder, so metal is folded over not nice welded tubing.
