Just looked at a local 93 with rusty undercarriage (a couple of pictures of the worst rust below). I'm in the NE obviously.
The good: under 150,000 miles; factory lockers; asking $3K; drives well; interior pretty good; one owner; recent repairs
The bad: fair bit of rust on parts of the undercarriage, though frame and floors look ok; birf soup so front axle needs re-sealing; so-so paint job after fender bender; AC doesn't work; rear brakes need to be done and emerg brake cable; tires will need replacing at some point
Engine and tranny seem strong, started it with rad cap off and no bubbling so likely no HG issues.
I would use this for driving to and from my cottage mainly, won't be a daily driver. I
figure I can fix it up in my garage (front axle, rear brakes) and try to slow down some of the rusting underneath. Get some years out of it.
Worth considering?
