hahahahahahaha wow!!!!!!!!

what do you guys wash your trucks with, a 40/60 mix of brake fluid/salt-water?

it is sooooo expensive to live in sf,and i have to be close to the beach but i PAY to do so!!!! i had a prelude in the late 80's up until the late 90's that had football sized rust holes in it. no pics because it has since returned to the earth due to beach/salt air.... i swear, it was in my driveway one week.... and the next it was a dune of rust. i reported it stolen they never found it. hmmmm??????????????

Re: Now this is rust!!!!!

This guy I know had the body of a '68 or '69 Dodge Hemi Charger. It had been setting in a field for 15 years. The bottom was completely gone. No floor at all, just a few rusty remains of the sub-frames.

Maybe this thread should have been called "Patina Gone Wild".
I won't be complaining about fixing my little rust spots after seeing some of those.

Re: Now this is rust!!!!!

Those are some good pictures and I have full confidence that you'll have those trucks all patched up in no time at all. A few minor stitch welds and some evercoat rage and you'll be good to go. Only thing wrong with the first picture is he needs to get that mouse nest out of there...
