Fucking dreadful things. Rustarama and cost more than you can imagine. Why not just buy a fucking Porsche 356 and camp. (If you like rear engined rustboxes which cost too much). What are you? Some sort of hedgemonkey? *wink*

Bugger off, I'm getting there.

My Dad has owned a '74 Bay window bus since '88. Has always lived outside, and there isn't anymore rust than when he purchased it.

The secret?

Engine oil thinned with white spirit- squirted in all the box sections every other year.

Those old buses don't rust any worse than other cars from their era.

Dipping, wax injection and wheel arch liners has made modern cars far less prone to rust.
