Will today's cars spontaneously rust away like the 914? Let's assume environmentally friendly conditions & no aftermarket rust inhibitors. I suppose an undercoating is acceptable.

i had a 2008 Chevy Colorado that cracked the frame just behind the cab
about 2 years ago. I jacked the drivers side up to replace an emergency brake cable and there was a loud noise and a bunch of rust fell on the ground. It was a good looking and driving truck till it snapped in half. In fairness, it lived outside about 6 houses from the ocean it's whole life and was a daily driver.. |
