I would like to upgrade the whole thing to Ultegra 10 speed. My LBS (who has a great mechanic) has told me the price would be about 1200 (includes a wheel). Am I crazy to invest this kind of money in this bike? I am thinking for a little more I could get something new or should I simply replace the brakes and keep using it. It makes me want to puke everytime I see rust on my Serotta. Thanks for any advice.

You can always move it to a new frame if you ever get one.
