We all dread the feared rust invasion in our precious rides, just interested in pics of other peoples rust spots what they look like, include if ya want photos of ya repair job etc.

Unfortunately i can't upload my pics but the only rust i have was on the top window sill lucky i fixed it when i did though, more holes than a salt and pepper shaker. Unfortunately cracked the windscreen when i took it out so had to get a new one of those as well. Rust got cut out, hundreds of pin sized holes or bigger got braise welded and whole roof got resprayed all good now though.

Will try and find a way to get them up here does anybody know how i can get them from bitmap to jpeg??

So show us ya rusty bits.....................

Around boot seal mainly - now sanded back and coated with penetrol. Duct tape covering holes to keep water out until I fill them. Probably some lurking under rear bumper as well but can't get it off yet as bolts have rusted solid!

You want rust, ill give you rust. At one point my car was a Hachi-rusto!

Found this by accident. Knew there was a small hole but this was a total shock.

This was also a little surprise. There was actually more down further then what the pic shows. Massive thumbs up to my main man Mitch for the work he did.

I had rust in three spots around hatch. Big spot in tyre well, bottom of side thingies, two small spots at the panel join in front door jams and all the rear metal behind the rear bumper basically. O and all around the bottom panel join of the boot. 700 dollars over the original quote 3 months and two panel beaters later and it's all fixed. Nearly forgot the spot near the fuel flap. http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/tongue.gif

This looks like it's being patched before. Watch out for signs of other patches.

Only rust I have found in my car is two tiny holes in the front recess where the hinge goes on my passenger side door. And one little strip, about 1cm wide and about 4cm long in my hatch, just under the seal of the rear window.
