As mentioned above, I was asked this question by a friend that was looking at purchasing one possibly in the next few days. I tried to explain where to look but he wanted pictures so I put it to the community. Post your pics of the worst rusted area's we have on our cars. I don't have any rust on my Teener. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/slap.gif)
I did a search and could not find a single thread with all the area's to look at, so I will try to get one going. Dig out your pics and post them. Please try to explain where the area is (in idiot terms if it is not obvious) for the novice. Oh, He will be looking at this thread so prepare yourself for the carnage buddy and (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welcome.png) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) |

Perhaps someone has a pic of rust forming on the cowling under the bottom trim piece. And, along that joint between the cowling and fender; where the rubber strip is inserted.
I've seen in on numerous rust free 914's |
