He does find the cooledt bike right?

Another nice find...how do you do it! CL doesn't have much in my city.

For the cleaning, I use 0000 steel wool and Chore Boy too. I used Dawn or some other soap with it, and water, to cut the grease too. Works well and gets the chrome realy clean. Brass wool also works well and doesn't scratch the chrome, but I have never had any problems with 0000 steel wool so I keep using it.
 
Today I squirted some Simple Green on the greasy parts and let it sit for 10 minutes.

I then got a bucket and poured in some Dawn liquid dish soap and fill the bucket with water.

Washed the entire bike (except chainguard) and used a small scrub brush on the tight spots.

Dried it off and this is where it stands right now...the seat is amazing.

This photo is a bit deceiving because it's hard to see the rust and oxidation that is on the chrome.

The paint is also in very nice shape. The next step will be to tear the bike down and go over everything piece by piece...uggghhh. :?
