 Les,
    I totally agree that it's a great looking car with good upgrades, but what's your opinion of the rusty fasteners?  Did someone keep the car too clean (e.g., steam clean the suspension) so even a little moisture caused the fasteners to rust?  

    Are there fastener finishes we should avoid in exposed uses (e.g., suspension)?

      The car was sold to a doctor in Ohio by Lew and he had me go over the car to be certain it operated flawlessly. 
      This price was a steal !

   Les,
       I totally agree that it's a great looking car with good upgrades,
   but what's your opinion of the rusty fasteners?  Did someone keep the
   car too clean (e.g., steam clean the suspension) so even a little
   moisture caused the fasteners to rust?
       Are there fastener finishes we should avoid in exposed uses (e.g.,
   suspension)?
