Actually, quite a neat old bike with loads of character. I think you made the right decision in trying to protect it. I can think of many more deserving rain bikes. This one deserves a touch of care considering the age. Needs a nice old pump, too. The colors remind me a tad of the 1st generation Raleigh Ti Team colors...just a tad. Nice ride.
