I think I need a bit more prep for that. Both of my doors are rusting at the bottom and in need of repair. I also need a tune.

My drivers door is rusting, my front bumper is cracked, drivers quarter panel is all screwed up and I have a few spots where rust was coming around the hatch strip

Stupid Minnesota

Still runs and drives good though, I'll just have to try to fix up what I can and see how long I can keep it going.

Replaced one door already on the yellow one and the red one is starting to show signs.

Um, they don't rust just sitting in the garage, duh.

BTW, for those of you who don't know, a pint of Seafoam through the brake booster vacuum line really clears up the idle and hesitation. I do it every spring but I always forget how much of a difference it makes.

Not even a hint of rust on mine (101k miles). Must be the clean livin'!
