I'm planning my first trip to an older models boneyard (ctcautoranch over in Denton County, Texas).
I'm looking for 1) a driveline for a 1961 pontiac tempest - manual
and
2) just taking pictures of older cars
If I'm walking through these rows of cars, they all have rust. They all sit out in the weather all year.
From other threads, it sounds like the order of (walk away down to its possible) is:
1. Rusted so bad you can see daylight, all metal is gone
2. Rust so thick it breaks off in layers
3. Rusted down below the paint but scratch it and there is metal
4. Rusty streaks in the paint but no holes or thick areas of rust
Is that about right?
