Satin clearcoat is always an option after you get the chassis cleaned to bare metal. It will keep the rust away and tends to look better than an overall spray of silver paint. If you do have to paint it, forget the hardware store and go to a good hobby store and buy metal simulation coating type sprays...they are pretty convincing.
Alclad II is the best but expensive.
