Have you checked out mine before DLK members got a hold of it......


I've checked it out now... it sure has come a long way. Did you have much rust to start with? I'm having to weigh either finding panels, or just swapping out front clips! Either way, I won't be driving again for a while.

The bottom 6" inches of the car was all rusted out, I was driving Fred Flinstone Style for a few months there,nothing like getting a real good view of the freeway through the floorboard of your car! :thumbs:

The PO of mine had put in a new carpet kit, covering up some rust. I'm going to have to pull it (probably this week) to get a real idea of what I'm faced with inside.

Here's what I've found so far...

Image
Passenger rust around gas filler.

Image
From the outside.

Image
Driver's fender.

Image
More of the bad stuff!

All of this on a "There's not any rust anywhere except the rear bumper and under the headlight!" car. Boy of boy. Glad there are locals who have dealt with some of this before!
