Damn that looks so sweet. I just gave mine a 24 hour soak in vinegar to get rid of the surface rust, the polished it with Blue Magic metal polish and Charmin. I don't know if that's something anyone has ever heard of, but I guess Charmin is the one TP with no wood fiber in it. Polishes up real nice. I hope to have pics up this weekend of that and the other old school bike I just finished. I'll post up some of my partial Strowler too.
