    I found this car on Offer Up for $2k a few years ago. Had been in sitting in a barn since 1976. Former owner had replace engine with 1100 and disc brakes.

    How to treat media blasted steel

    Cleaned my engine back plate with media blaster to remove surface rust. I want to mount it on the assembled block and paint it but I don't want flash rust so I coated it with light oil. Is there a standard method to dealing with the problem of flash rust after cleanup?
