A lot of the farmers around here just spray the underside of their trucks,
and anything else that might rust, with spoiled diesel fuel. It won't last
more than a year and smells a little, but on the other side, it is cheap
and it works. I have a '69 Dodge that was used by a contractor as a fuel
truck - the body is Swiss cheese, but he bed is like new where all the fuel
spilled.
