Is it any news that a 79 or earlier VW Bus is a relative tin can in it's
construction ?
or that Vanaogns can benefit nicely from sound deadening  rubber added to
the insides of the door skins ?
Are people not routinely treating surface rust............it's super easy to
stop rust before it gets very bad, like even in, literally, 2 minutes.
