If it is any consolation the Sunroof Syncro that was for sale in Seward, AK this Fall was a rust bucket.  The seller claimed that had little to no rust except for two places that he noted, then he posted photo's that showed rust holes.  I question his ability to accurately state the vehicles condition.  I purchased my parts van from him in Sept. of `05 and while it was well worth what I paid he was a bit generous in descibing it.  I suspect that this is due to his lack of comprehension of the true condition of the van and what it would take to repair it and not an attempt to be dishonest.
