I just purchased an AAR cuda that showed little to no rust only to find out that the inner frames have begun to rust in some locations. front drivers side at the rear K frame mount and outbored passenger side torsion bar spot. Im not worried about originality as I plan to drive the car and autox. Im bummed about the rust but repair there are many options now. Just glad I found it first before I through in bigger bars and such. I guess it gos to show these are old cars many people have handled them and you have to seriusly look them over and address the weakness of the car.
