Prime example is Brian Bass from Texas. He did a 3000 mile road trip in his bare metal Model A last year and it doesn't have any oxidation on it.

That was my other solution, but when you oil it, it turns brown. Maybe I can oil it with so Royal Purple and turn it purple If not I'll just paint it. I'd like to do something with it exterior wise before the photoshoot for the magazine (2-3 weeks)
