I found the bike I always wanted as a kid - beat up, with a wrecked paint job, rusty, and 28 years old. (S/N GL501100, MFD July, 1975 in Chicago.) I want to restore it as close as possible to the way I would've decked it out when I was thirteen. Here's the progress.

Hagerty 100 All Metal Polish...Hopefully To The Rescue...
...this is the polish I'm going to try out after the steel wool.
If it works, KEEP IT AWAY FROM THE BRAKING SURFACE ON THE WHEEL RIMS. You don't want any kind of glaze on those.
