Gonna strip it down and give it an oxy bath and set about cleaning all the blue bits. Wheel bearings are mint, just need a grease. Think bendy is right, this may just come up a treat :-)

well i decided i should have a crack at this now to see how she comes up.
as she was pulled out of the back of the pick up truck
a few pics of the worst pitted bits, and after a little time with a razor blade and an Oxylic acid bath...
enjoy
stem
seat post
bars
chain wheel
crank arms (forgot before pic)
forks
should also point out that nothing has been polished yet either! think this will come out alright
