The Ford Barn

As everyone knows, many ford frames are double walled because of the way the x-members also become innerframes front and back. Is there a way to get a rust prventaive between the two layers of frame, meaning the side rails and where they connect to the x-member... or is it nothing to be concerned with since this car is not going to see the evils of Maine roads in the winter.... salt, sand, and the various calcium formulas that "do not rust cars...". according to local and state officials (but that's a different topic for a different forum....)

Going to use rustoleum for the visable areas of the frame...
