rust???

I just picked up a 1958 Olmo track frame. A little info on the frame. It is a chrome frame with amazing lugs that is painted black on top of the chrome with the exception of the lugs. The paint is terrible, chipped down to the chrome all over the place. Well everywhere except where the chrome is chipped down to the steel and it looks like it is starting to rust. I don't want to repaint this frame, but I want to stop the rust. Any ideas on what I can do to stop the rust from advancing while keeping the original paint and beat up look? The thing has too much character for a paint job.
Thanks!
