As you can see, the whole underside is weakened by rust, the question is: what will collapse first? I think the stuff to go first will be rear suspension mounting points of the driver's/passenger's floor panels.
The photos were taken in April, last I checked, holes appeared in the front jack strongpoints and the tin worm is spreading quickly in other areas (for example: I tried to hook the luggage rope in the trunk and the flimsy alloy hook pierced right through the body).

Ain't no Stillruns subject, I've seen tons worse. The real problem is that you use your daily driver as a "rally car".

#3, Why? I didn't even put a scratch on either of my cars yet (well, I almost rolled one... and the oil leak in this one is semi-rally in origin). The fact that totally brings me down, is that there's no single hole/rust spot to weld and be done with, everything is contaminated.

I could imagine a scenario like in some Looney Tunes sketch where Sens is driving his Frog and suddenly the bumpers and various panels start to fall off, then the glass, then the seats and undercarriage until all that's left is a platform with wheels and a Polish guy holding a steering wheel.

You should have seen my volare when it was on the road. I could actully pull off pieces of what was supposed to be frame. And I drove it like that for about a year, untill I could get another car.

#7, I think I'll own this for a year max, too. As I said before, it will either brake in half while jacked up or while cornering at 100kph... I'd prefer to get rid of it a bit earlier.

#6, Not this one, but the previous Frog was actually loosing parts while driving: pieces of trim, wipers...

#11, It ended up with new rocker panels, front floor, front fenders and everything back from the rear seat was cut off and rebuilt from scratch (rear subframe, suspension mounting points, trunk floor...). What a couple of idiots me and my dad were.
