I am building my first rod and need some advice, again. I have the chassis almost complete but I had to roll across the street and store it in my neighbors barn for the winter. How do you keep the disc brakes from rusting all up?
I blocked all the ports I could find to keep the mice out such as headers, carb, water pump ect, any thing else I should do? Thanks o great ones.

Dear Rick, you might try WD-40. but keep it off the pads , use brake kleen to clean it off . put some Marvel Mystery Oil in the spark plug holes and turn the motor over by hand.
