Ediths old chassis was full of holes everwhere apart from in the engine bay - after a bit of degreaser even the chassis paint was immaculate - so that's diesel and a hell of a lot of engine oil. 18 year old chassis. mint.

The only problem with that is that it will wash off fairly easily, plus it's very messy....but it will do a good job if regularly re-applied. I'd advise against OLD engine oil though as it has all sorts of nasty things in it and you don't really want to be spreading that round your local roads.
That's very true, loads of corrosive acids in old engine oil so i might mix it with duck oil or new engine oil, not fully synthetic though.

The bloke who had my 110 from new for 10 years before me said he used to take it to his local spanner where they sprayed all of their waste oils on the chassis - appearntly it's best sprayed on when they is a thin layer of muck/mud for the oil to stick and congeil to - i'm sure youd not find anyone willing to do that these days but my chassis is in excellent condition (under all the horrible oily crude)
