A big can of newtech and a coat of fast dry, the wof inspector would never suspect a thing.

Newtech, na to hard to sand, unless with a grinder lol. Maybe just paint it all rust brown!

Youwill note auctions says "must pick up"probably not driveable

gunhand, Oct 3, 6:48pm
Also says goes good, full chassis so shouldnt full off.although.

More like scrap metal

It's like this.
Modern vehicle panels tend to rust over a much larger area then just what you see.
Old vehicle panels like the Toyota tend to have rust ONLY where you see it, the rest of the panels will be ok most times.

It's a bit like 20 years ago, I could use the panel steel off an old whiteway 400 washing machine to do rust repairs.
It was a total waste of time trying to use the panels from a Gentle Annie

Aye fully epoxy coated weld the right side fold the right way-
And ya wanna use rusted untreated NEW steel!

It was more of a statement about how things have changed.
The old Whiteway steel was a pretty std mild steel of comparable thickness to the steel used on a lot of 70's / 80's cars.
The Gentle Annie steel was a thinner & higher tensile steel that behaved very badly when using an oxy/acet welder

With the old steel, what showed as rust on the outside surface, was mostly confined to the same area on the inside.
5 cent bubble outside / 50 cent size inside

With the newer steel, what rust showed on the outside was often a lot smaller then what was rusting away on the inside.
5 cent bubble outside / 2 x $5 note+ size inside

not enough steel left to scrap

johnf_456, Oct 4, 11:44am
Whats left after a strip down. Yeah not much steel but some.

It would be fun to take it over a jump or two and see what was left.
