"See Where They Rust" is a series and category where we feature listings that do a particularly good job displaying where certain models tend to suffer from rust. We love looking for rust-free cars, but we have learned a ton about how to inspect the dry cars from looking at photos of heavily rusted models. Obviously floors and rocker panels are always at risk, but every model has different special areas where they corrode. We hope that this series is informative and helpful when you are verifying the claims of sellers and their "99% rust free" cars. -BaT
This 1962 Amphicar 770 (chassis 100855) is described as a very rotted barn find, and pervasive heavy rust appears to suggest it was used in salt water frequently and literally put away wet. Listed as a parts car or "huge restoration project", the seller adds that many difficult to find parts are still intact including its engine, transmission and one of two factory brass propellers. Find it here on eBay in Scarborough, Maine with no reserve.
