We dug up some old antique soda pop bottles, what is the best way to clean them?

The insides are cloudy with caked on grime. We don't want to ruin the lettering on the bottles. I thought a dishwasher might be the best way, but I don't have one.

You don't want to put them in a dishwasher. That could remove the lettering from the outside of the bottles. What works for me is this:
Efferdent tablets for cleaning false teeth and a little bit of aquarium gravel, say 2 tablespoons. Put warm water in the bottle, add two efferdent tablets and the gravel. Let soak overnight. The next day, all you have to do is put your hand over the opening of the bottle and shake. The gravel will clean off the residue. Pour into a strainer and save the gravel for the next bottle.
