Re: Educate me: why all the rusty fenders?

There is a bad design that traps water/dirt in the fender brace attached there and causes it to rot out.
Things that help are to drill a decent sized drain hole at the bottom of the brace and to seal the edges & top of the brace with seam sealer to keep the water/dirt out in the first place.
