Re: Underside Rust Hole Pics. How bad is this?

Hi there Cruz.

Thanks for the additional input.

I guess it would be too good to be true to get the right vehicle first time. I'm now trawling the internet for other likely candidates.

Re: Underside Rust Hole Pics. How bad is this?

Lovely. Thanks for the links. The more info the better.
