this wouldn't be a tricky way of advertising your ebay auction would it?

Well to get the rust off the parts either soda blast or use some other gentle media.
I think eastwood has some coatings that approximate the zinc coating. If they dont try http://www.caswellplating.com they have a bunch of plating kits. Check out there forums, they'll be a ton of info about restoring parts like you describe. Good luck! Matt |

Look in the telephone book under "metal plating." It can be done at home, but really is best left to professionals due to the multiple toxic chemicals dips involved.
