Guys,


I have only had my 914 for a few months and I finally got around to giving it a real bath...what with the spring weather in the midwest being unpredictable.

I tried to be as careful as possible when I washed it and I was studying how the water got into the cabin through the crack at the top of the window, and how the water seeped through the rear panel onto the top of the battery and down.

My first glance at the hell-holes when I purchased the car was good, and the car is still structurally sound (Longs are in good shape and so is the battery tray as well as the condition of the door jams).

My question is this:
Can I do anything to prevent this from continuing to get worse? I was thinking Rustoleum or something of that nature.
Also, how fast does this rust form? Is it possible that it has only rusted since I have owned it?

See Pics above...

Thanks
