Clear coat would protect it from rusting and it would have a nice durable finish that would last for eons!

You really think if I just cleared it that it would sell......

I'm assuming this one is in running condition? Maybe paint this one but when you find one that is in the junk pile(has been used for parts already etc.) I think you could strip it and sell it naked, just as a decorator item.

Yeah I just broke it down for the repaint but I could clear it out, put it back together and you can use it like it is.

Well it has been a lot of body work involved in getting it ready for paint but it is ready to shoot tomorrow. I have cleaned about half of the parts up that goes back into the machine and it s primed and sanded ready to go!

SO hopefully tomorrow I will be posting the painted machine. But here it is ready for paint........
