I am new to Yota 4x4's. I have had Chevy's and I have a '75 Scout II. I found a '98 Cruiser (going to be family adventure wagon - wife /2 kids/dog) that was originally titled in New Jersey... I know salt belt...I had the owner send some undercarriage photos. I am having trouble distinguishing whether or not this is too much rust... I live in Charleston SC and have never had problems with rust (the Scout has some from PO driving it on the beach mainly leafs and rear drums). Anyway, I am going to post a couple of the better photos that he sent and would appreciate the input from some of you vets. Thanks in advance.
I know they aren't the best photos in the world, but they are really all I have to go on and it was like pulling teeth to get these. I have gotten him down to 7500 for it, but don't want to deal with a ton of rust repair either. It only has 120,000 miles, but very limited maintenance records. I am very iffy right now and my gut is telling me to look elsewhere for now... am I worried for nothing?
