...well almost.
Loads of engine tinware on the truck has lost its paint over the last 66yrs, the oil pouring from every orifice, has kept the rust at bay for the best part.
So while the motors out, it all needed cleaning up, I'm reluctant to paint as it will stick out like a sore thumb, but once cleaned up it would need protecting, bored the other night wondered what Fire Black, would look like as a finish.
The rust is engrained, but only on the surface, A scrub with a scothbite pad, got rid of the worst.
Hopefully it wont look out of place
