To paint or not to paint.  That is the question. I've seen several restoration videos of people painting the chassis.  Here is a pic of the 96 chassis.  This is the only place there is rust.  Should I paint the entire chassis to protect this area after it is cleaned?  The painted chassis I've seen in the videos look pretty good when done. The RF cans look pretty good and will be much better if I can get them clean.  I would hesitate to paint them.  Thoughts?
