They said they greased the car in some sort of rust inhibitor. So if all that is on the grease, then maybe it's not as bad as it looks. But you know, 50 years of sitting in a tank of water...plus they wrapped it in a huge plastic bag which obviously wasn't a good idea because it would keep any moisture that reached the body from escaping....Either way I think they should still try to clean it up and see what they get.
