Bugeye rust?
Hi,
I'm off to look at a few bugeyes this week, are they prone to rust on the rear arches like the classics? I know the front subframes rust but that's easily fixable. Are there any other areas that bugeyes seem to rust in that I should check over? Thanks :thumb: |
Don't think the new age Rust on the arches like the classics av had 2 (blob eyes) neither had rust anywhere visible.
|
im pretty sure the rears on the bug will have plastic at the edges as the bodykit, the fronts will still rust thou
|
The heap I briefly owned not only had a terribly rusty front subframe, but it had also spread into the front engine crossmember where the anti-rollbar attached to it.
You've probably already seen this, but just in case: https://www.scoobynet.com/general-te...ame-query.html |
they still rust on the back arches, check the front subframe and also the rear subframe
|
yup, front subframe, when I got mine it needed a patch doing, not too bad though.
|
good sign on well kept car i think is to run your hand under the arch lip see if any mud falls down , i wash mine every other wash so always spotless behind the lip
|
Thanks for the replies. I will make sure I have a good look underneath :thumb:
|
