Hi adam
this is the one that has had the engine fire?
treat the burnt area and paint it ( killrust maybe or X-TROLL to stop the rust and make sure its water proof because once its been burnt rust starts very quickly if left outside even if covered by a tarp

If you wnat to keep the chrome good lay a thick layer of chrome polish , non abrasive type, all over it , but don't rub it off.
Also drop silica gel packs in the head and tail lights to stop condensation.

Spend a day and clean all the burnt stuff out of it, carpet, trim, burnt bits n pieces, clean the burnt smoke of glass give it a vacuum out etc etc,

clean under the guards all the loose dirt so it will stop more corosion occuring while its sitting.

then maybe the smell will go away by the time you get round to using it. leave the windows ope slightly so it breaths
