Rust

Found a little rust earlier. I've stripped and treated it here.



There was also some around the license plate lights. These are common areas for rust, and the rust on the end is because there was a small ding on the back that had been painted over. Pretty minor stuff considering the age. I'm expecting to find more on the floorboards, and if that is all I find then I'm doing pretty well.

Also got a big shipment of parts. Decided I'd list the price for the parts when they arrive, rather than when I install them. I got:
  • Rear control arm bushings
  • Differential mount
  • Transmission mounts
  • Motor mounts
  • Trunk seal
  • Front and rear emblems
  • Subframe bushings (had these in my parts bin from the e24 so didn't need to order them)
Cost: $370
Total: $3251
