I got these recently for a good price just to see if I could do anything with them.
They got dipped in the magic rust treatment solution (Hammerite Rust treatment solution) for a week and came out well.:tinysmile_fatgrin_t

My pal Frank throws them on his coal fire first to get rid of the rust. Then a good brush down and red-lead paint next.

Then a decision is made whether to fill or not?
cheers
