Hey i was just reading the post below on the rust. My cars got the same proble ('cept its been bogged up and painted over)with rust near the firewall (probably because of that reinforcing box). Can anyone tell me anymore about this? im getting the car resprayed soon so i want to know if there is anything i can do to prevent this from happening again?
Cheers
I hate rust. |

| make a quarterly or half yearly ritual of giving all the usual rust prone spots a good soaking with fish oil. give those boxes a good blast with water (make sure you allow it them to dry out - flush with metho will help) or compressed air and then soaking with fish oil. |
