If you're right there's arbitrage potential.
Drag it up to Portland and you'll be rich.

Sorry, man, the Bohemians around here demand more for $150. https://portland.craigslist.org/wsc/bik/5902780288.html Probably get that for $25. Clean Varsity for $80 with fenders: https://portland.craigslist.org/mlt/bik/5944793128.html
Sweet: https://portland.craigslist.org/mlt/bik/5940324711.html

Now if you stripped it down and put a fixed gear on it -- sky is the limit.

It isn't.

Further under the radar, both Moultons and Carlton Catalinas were sold
in the US with Huffy badges.

Indeed your eye is untrained. That bike is made from heavy low grade steel that is welded together. These bikes were often known to bend in a crash unlike the higher grade steels Serotta used. Serotta made racing bikes for LeMond's racing team if memory serves. But NO PRODUCTION BIKES of this grade.
