Got this out of the loft of "the bike barn" and it cleaned up very well! Wish I would have taken a "before clean up pic" though, dough! Thanks for looking, Chris

My goodness I wouldn't know what to do with a bike that had chrome that nicely preserved.

Without a doubt. Some people still scoff at Schwinns, certainly because they're so common and some folks have to be different, I understand that part completely, but I haven't come across any old bikes that used materials as good as Schwinn did. The way you can bring rusty chrome back to life and looking SO good, I'll never knock Schwinn for their materials and workmanship!

I have a 1938 Schwinn world that sat in a attic for 60+ years and cleaned up as good as the day it was put up in the attic, sold me on schwinn pre '80's quality instantly. But I do still love all bikes! Chris
