Someone said sandblasting so I'll look into that, but I might enjoy taking it all apart and scrubbing the rust off each piece.
The tires are Continental ExtremeContacts and I understand they *cannot* be driven in freezing weather or it will ruin the compound. This baby has to stay in the sun. :-)
Thanks!

I had the Continental Extreme Contacts on my daily driver and I live in northern Ohio. The temperature had been down to subzero at times and I have never had a problem. Only problem with them is the tread life sucks. They are rated for 50k miles and I only got 30k out of them.
