'82 CDT - mdeming - 12-02-2010

Here are some photos of my coupe. I drive it daily and it has about 200k miles. I was going to fix it up but found some rust and plan to punt at some point in the next few months.
I will enjoy driving it in the meantime, it has been a good car.

Why not repair the rust, not very difficult. I am sure someone on here would love that.

I'm very gun shy about rust. I'm not a welder and took on a project where I kept discovering rust in a past project (worse shape than this) and it left a sour taste in my mouth. The rust isn't as bad as something you may find in the snow belt. What you see in the photos is what I have and I still don't know about the condition of the drivers side longitudinal. The rust I have is presumably from bad seals and is indicated in the photos. I don't have any rust on the rear deck, only one very small bubble on the trunk and at some point the battery leaked and there is a small patched hole under the tray; nothing otherwise. The car runs strong and I enjoy driving it but at this point I will look for a different car (budget permitting) and fully expect to sell this one in the first months of the new year. Will offer it here first.

That car is purty. You should get the rust fixed up.
