I am putting back together my old International and doing something
new ( to me ) on the rusted parts, electrolytic derusting.
Here is a good link:

My setup is a plastic trashcan, 12 volt battery charger, a 4 foot
piece of 1 inch steel pipe, and a box of baking soda. I have the
positive attached to the steel pipe and the negative attached to the
rusted hood of my tractor and all soaking in the trashcan. I am very
happy with the results. I was planning on sand blasting but some
folks on another list suggested this.
