Pictures of the underside of cars always turn out to look worse than they are for some reason. The entire car was very solid. The rust colored stuff you see is mostly the dirt that was splashed up onto the underside from the rain. You can see the dirt on these pictures: http://www.tuff240.com/images/t3/velvet65notch/velvet65notch06.jpg http://www.tuff240.com/images/t3/velvet65notch/velvet65notch05.jpg Fortunately he pulled the battery out when he parked it and the battery tray was still solid. He also pulled all of the door panels off and stored them in his attic. Closest thing I ever saw to NOS that weren't actually NOS. The seats and dash pad were a different story however. :-/ -Patrick D. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
