Re: Rusty car
No problem, you can have the rubble wall made of stone if you don't want to have too many rusty things in one small area. Otherwise this can be an exercise in rusty items. Things rust differently and it would be nice to see things in different stages of 'rustiness' The fridge can be a somewhat recent addition with a lesser degree of rust on it than the car and the 55 gallon tanks, should you decide to use them can also rust in a different way. They can be newer or more deteriorated. If you don;t want to put in the tanks you can always use stone and rocks to create a wall. The scope of this is endless and you can just decide to put in whatever you think will look good with the car.

Re: Rusty car
I donno much about oil colours, but as far as I know white spirit is used to wash brushes from oil paints, so it means that it should dissolve the paint. To thin the oil paints you need to use some medium, like 'painting medium quick / slow drying' or Turpentine.
(Turpentine) Solvent
The two primary uses of turpentine in industry are as a solvent and as a source of materials for organic synthesis. As a solvent, turpentine is used for thinning oil-based paints, for producing varnishes, and as a raw material for the chemical industry. Its industrial use as a solvent in industrialized nations has largely been replaced by the much cheaper turpentine substitutes distilled from crude oil. Turpentine has long been used as a solvent, mixed with beeswax or with carnauba wax, to make fine furniture wax for use as a protective coating over oiled wood finishes (e.g., lemon oil).
White spirit is mainly used when doing streaks, in little (wiped) qty to dissolve the drying oil paint and stretch it down as desired.

Re: Rusty car
incredible Robert, where is the rest of that fantastic refrigerator you built? U must fit it in somehow even lying on its side with the door open or even without the door and the door some distance away but you really need to include that.
