I kinda _like_ chains.  And whips, too!

I have been fortunate to live out of the rust belt, but I "feel your pain"
with my '56 kombi, which, by the way, is now close to rust-free.

I read a story in Excellence (Porsche rag) about a guy who went to look
at a 356 which was advertised as a "rust free classic" only to get there
and the thing was a pile of swiss cheese.  He confronted the seller about
this, who then replied, "Yup, the rust is free!"
