Tx Brent, not sure on the wheels, very much could have been wood depending on the when and there are alloy too depending on same.
Pedals and original chainring all cleaned up well considering, chainring may not come into play unless I get lucky and find a wheel with skip tooth.
Elbow grease, 2 weeks Evaporust, stout BBQ and welding brushes and the wire wheel all came into play here.
I was really glad they were still sound and bearing cups were still ok, new bearings, oldschool axle grease and good to go.
