If you are going to ride it, and in Savannah I'll bet you will, then it needs to be roadworthy first.
Both rims are the same, 20". Your tires will be 20 x 1.25 up to 20 x 2.40, decimal not a fracional size. The front could be the same size as the old tire, as well as the rear tire which is bigger but still a 20" tire. The exact size is written on the sidewalls. The chrome on the front rim may still be good. WD40 and some 0000 steel wool might clean it up.
The chrome on the handlebars and sissybar, along with the fender, is gone. The chain guard also needs paint, maybe silver so it would stand out.
I would do like twojs.bike suggested. I would sand them down and paint them. The chain guard needs the fender to attach to, so I would keep them both. New bars or rechroming is expensive. One other option is to find another bike that has those parts and buy the whole thing used. You could get your tires and other parts you might need. Make room for a few more bikes in your garage.
I would suggest a 26" springer style fork for the front. It would give a chopper look with the small front wheel. I agree that the original fork won't be trustworthy once it is straightened.
The paint on the frame will probably look good after a cleaning and polishing. I've used regular car paste wax with good results, usually 2 or 3 coats really brings out the old finish. I usually take the bare frame and scrub every inch, being careful around trim and graphics and not scubbing too much so I don't dull what's there.
It's good bike to learn on, as it has many of the same parts as many of the 60's and 70's bikes.
