Try some "cut 'n polish" for old cars, it removes many a scratch and scuff mark and brings back the origional colour and shine. Just use it once for the rebuild and then go to ordinary polish for the annual make-over.
I know the feeling you get with a good find! Some alloy wheels are sure to come at you on another $20 bike somewhere.
Your Giant looks like a mean machine - well sorted and very individual. bicycle good very much!
