I would give it an OA or vinegar bath to take the rust off and clear coat to prevent everything from further degrading and prevent future rust. Just my $0.02 It's only original once. :wink:

I would definitely keep it original and definitely NOT clearcoat it! A good wash and coat of wax will protect it just as well, look natural and not ruin anything.

Hmm, cool. Why would the clear coat hurt anything? I have cleared a few bikes that were kinda ratty patina.
