What is salt air? I googled it and got just places and adjectives. Air here is the same as air in Kansas. I looked it up. True we probably have generally higher humidity, but the salt doesn't get into the air except in salt water spray right at the ocean, which may travel 50 yards in a really strong wind. I have a set of Oliver sheet metal in my shop that I sand blasted four years ago and it has yet to rust. I just don't trust sandblasting to get down into pits. I have, like every one else, found a lot of rust under some pretty decent looking paint, and I don't believe that the people that painted 25 years ago just painted over a lot of rust. I think that they cleaned it up shiny clean, except for the pits, which they probably figured were too small to bother. It really bothers me to see my professionally painted panels bubbling up where there were pits before the paint was cleaned off, and it was perfectly cleaned to shiny metal. Now I do it myself, and anyplace that there are rust pits gets acid wash, just like the counterman at the automotive paint store told me to.

Although he himself has never actually owned or restored a tractor, he was always enthusiastic and always around helping with other peoples projects.
