that chrome looks great - just polish it

Look under bottom bracket and inside of rear drop-outs for serial #, but may be an early one and thus no serial #

Hey David - I've used both Mother's Chrome (they do make it) and Blue Magic. Then final wipe down with a microfiber towel.

Was just looking at your brake bridge - is it stamped "Hutch" or are the "Hutch" letters drilled out? Look here for some serial # info...

If the chrome has some surface rust do a OA bath. Then polish.

The1980s · 2013-01-09 2:45pm

I was joking. Although u can spray paint over chrome. Looks to be in good shape. Id build it and ride that baby.

Whatever you do.....DO NOT peel those decals off!

Just a light cleaning is all you need to so to that frameset. Anything else will diminish its desirability.

The head tube decal is IMPOSSIBLE to find!

DjYady · 2013-01-09 4:10pm

just clean and polish it. mothers chrome polish like mentioned above will do just fine on it.
I have a few chrome frames that were in worse condition than that is and they are now looking nice and shiny with nothing but a cleaning and polish.
nice find btw.

bmxfanzz · 2013-01-09 6:35pm

I had no choice!! Ran out got some '' Blue Magic'' and a microfiber towel man i have never in my life been so happy to clean something i feel like i don't have a care in the world tonight starting on my project thanks for all the kind help

By the looks of that frame I would wax it and build it. That's it. It,s just perfect the way it is.

bmxfanzz · 2013-01-10 6:02pm

I love this Bike!!! its so Awesome and all the BMX History behind it. the cleaning went well a light wipe down. I see a big thing with a Hutch Bmx to build it the Vintage and correct way Mostly Hutch Parts. wow the cost is beyond my reach and seeing there are so many other people in this Bmx world who really are involved and its a great thing BMX !! so who am i to just hang this on my wall and forget about it.... when perhaps someone else would build this beauty and finish the Dream ....
