My friend advised me to pour a crankcase full of old oil on the floor.

I have seen that around here. It works. Now they have companies that come around and put Fluid Film in them.. I have a buddy that does his vehicles every year. ZERO rust on any of them. Makes a mess though where they are parked for the first week..

The first restoration shop I had my car at during its 15 year ordeal, the guy said you should pour clean Dextron trans fluid inside doors and quarters and such as a rust preventative. Then park the car on a plastic sheet for awhile, until it stops oozing fluid all over the place.
I never did try his advice.

Not being weird. That's honestly what he was recommending. It's stored out at his beautiful property so that's where he's coming from with this idea. I can see it with a car that's just a shell but not a complete car. Just wondering if anyone else had heard of this or recommended it. I was 90% against it but I wanted to hear from others.

Yeah.... but which "floor" ? ... Inquiring minds want to know.

I don't need any reminders to pour old oil on the floor, I seem to have no problem doing it reasonably often.
