Oiling an MV

[Jon Skagfeld]

Decades ago, it was SOP to apply engine oil to our vehicles prior to an inspection. Nice and shiny; I guess that satisfied the nabobs in the inspection team.

I recently got to thinking about doing the same for my jeep...just to tart it up.

Then I got to further thinking (Yeah, I know, dangerous ground). Wouldn't doing this create a helluva magnet for dust, dirt and road grime?

Anyone with experience recently doing this?
