I'm thinking it might be a decent price, but I do not know to much about these. Unfortunately it is not my size, or i may have inquired. I'm actually not sure if its even a good price, but I think it might be.

If it is a deal, I thought I would post it for the other cabe members to see.

That's a 1978 Superior with a small 22" fillet-brazed frame. Last year for the fillet-brazed Superior model. According to the 0748 stamp on the headbadge it was built on Wed. March 15th 1978. Looks to be mostly original and umolested except for the saddle, incorrect front wheel and missing spoke protector. I'd put the value at $200. Here are the '78 catalog pages:
