I've seen rust on things like nuts and bolts, but I can only recall one body rust picture. I drove mine in all sorts of snow, ice, road treatment, salt conditions without ever worrying about rust being an issue. Now on a '60-'70s Fiat, Alfa, Chevy, etc....

Search this forum for "rust". It can happen.

I just got back from WI after sitting in that snow storm watching the Packers beat the Texans in Lambo field. Left the game and drove 16 hours back to NJ
We get a lot of salt here. I can wash to body fairly well. It's the aluminum pieces, engine block that really take the brunt. It's hard to get the salt off those parts
