OilIT Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 I suspect I know the answer before I ask the question - "everywhere" But regardless here goes: I am going to look at a RR classic tomorrow, and wondered what I should be looking for in terms of known areas for corrosion - I am expecting chassis, sills, inner wings, floors, body mounts - anything else?

DrRob Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 A 1970s RR that has not been looked after will more than likely resemble the top of a pepper pot...covered in holes!! Perhaps ask a friendly LR4x4.com member to accompany you???????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geoffbeaumont Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 I've seen an otherwise relatively tidy truck that had rusted through into the sills from inside the vehicle, right along both sides. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
