Eh? I only drink beer marked diet cola w/o alcohol.

He lists condition as #3 on TheSamba's scale.

That scale (no pun intende) says:

"3 - Good - Presentable inside and out with some signs of wear. Not
detailed but very clean. Body should be straight and solid with no
apparent rust and absolutely no rust-through anywhere. Shiny,
attractive paint but may have evidence of minor fading or checking or
other imperfections. Runs and drives well. May need some minor
mechanical or cosmetic work but is fully usable and enjoyable as is. "

Sentence number 3 says "...no apparent rust and absolutely no rust
through anywhere..."

I did not bother looking at the pictures as I was not that interested.
Who knows, maybe he fixed the holes before selling. Or maybe the work
"rust" has a different meaning in his part of the world.
