I have the internals of a transmission which I hope I will never need i.e. I am 
keeping them as insurance, and I want to store them long term.
I found some Model A parts a while back that were wrapped in something like 
oily burlap. It sort of worked (well I guess 70+ years is a long time) but 
there were a few spots that had some surface rust. So I'm looking for ideas on 
some kind of stuff to coat these things with and then pack them away.
I am hoping to find something a bit waxy that won't make as much of a mess as 
oil or grease, and then I may build a wooden box for them since they are so 
heavy.
Thanks,
Jim
