    Default Rusted ae86's... Show us your rust

    Thought it would be an appropriate area to show off how badly your ae86 has rusted. Not that rust is a good thing, but here are some pictures I stumbled across the other day.

    Rufus, before I got sick of fixing rust, and passed it on.




















    The rust in this car would of been no where as bad, if it wasn't bodged up, and covered with silicon/silastic in the first place. Doing so had trapped water and dirt and accelerated the process. Sad thing is, a $5 can of fish oil would have almost stopped the progression of any rust if it were used in the spots where rust had started to take hold.

    Moral of my story? Research what you need to do to prevent rust taking over and DO NOT TRY TO JUST COVER IT UP! Let someone with half a brain do it for you if you can't figure out how to google rust prevention.

    Another common mistake is people cut out rust and bog it up and leave undercoat covering the bog. Undercoat attracts water and makes it worse
