Re: Rust protection?
When I was a kid...... My father sprayed all of his vehicles with 1 part used motor oil, 1 part linseed oil and 1 part mineral spirits to thin it all out. Put down card board all around the vehicle, wear old clothes and prepare to get dirty. Its not expensive at all. The most expensive part is setting up the Harbor Freight spray gun to run off the air compressor. About 30 dollars for the complete set up and you can use it every year.
This method does work, my 72' was sprayed for 40 years and is nearly free of rot. The original brake lines are still silver underneath on the rear axel. This truck has well past 100K on the odometer and was driven entirely in north west PA where they use salt on the road like a second religion. Perhaps not the most eco friendly or "green" option but it is effective.
Just my .02 cents on the subject....
