Drive side pedal out (60 cm long wrench extension helped a bit, thanks vacuum cleaner), seatpost still won't move. Oh well, let's soak it.
BB got out easily, but its cups require a Shimano TL-FW20 (or identically shaped) tool, which I'm hunting for on the cheap at the moment.
Thankfully the rust didn't eat through the frame (at least at the bottom bracket area).
Things are getting cleaned up nicely. After all this hassle I'm really considering keeping the frame at least - given the seatpost and the BB shells come loose.
Repacked the front wheel too, rear one will need a freewheel remover first...
