Default New Member very old bike

Ok first of Hi to everyone. Ill state it simply, i am 25 years old and i own a 1979 Suzuki TS 125cc. The bike has less than 1100 miles on it. It is currently sitting behind my house with 2 tires that are dry rotted, a seat that has been ate up by mice, and a gas tank filled with rust. I would realy like to fix this bike up at get it road worthy just to ride around on weekends out here in the country.Yes i know its not exactly a good road bike but it is what i have and i dont have to make payments, and i love riding bikes.I would just like an opinion if you guys think this bike is worth spending a few hundred dollars on to get road worthy. Every thing on the bike is original except for the rear fender. Would just like some honest opinion's here.

Thanks, ColonelVeers

(edit) i forgot to also so that i had no clue where to post this, and this seemed like best forum for a TS bike. So if not the best place sorry for the inconvience.
