From: lower slower delaware

Bikes: 2 trek road bikes, and some vintage english lightweights

I have almost the exact bike....paint is worn awfully, it was flaking off when i cleaned it...I was as gentle as possible with it, and put a few layers of wax on it...the chrome and aluminum cleaned up nicely with fine steel wool and WD 40 on the chrome and hoppes semichrome polish and a soft rag on the aluminum. I don't think they are worth a whole lot, but they are nice large(but heavy) , comfortable bikes.and mine is a 3 speed with drum brakes .mine is around a 1964 and has the same seat , rack and tool box....heres a few pictures of mine all cleaned up...
