hmmm i thought puntos where galvanised? iv noticed that on my 2b...inside the door at the top there is like rust bubbles appearing.i dont know why there though:S.
had it been a ford you would have a convertible buy now
i'd personally treat it with a bit of kurust before you repaint it mate.
@ littlepip, It's not Fords that have the reputation for rusting
you forget we mot cars and it is the fords that fail on rusty holes all the time we have welded one fiat in the last 3 years and about 20 fords so your not fooling me
anyway ford dint start galvanising till 2003 fiat started fully galvanizing cars at j reg with the tipo 1991 is that and they were partially protecting them before that even
Sorry lilpip, wrong on that bit. Think you'll find Fiat started FULLY galvanizing ALL models at M-N reg Atleast it was only then that they started galvanising the doors on the mk2 Panda's
i think he means that was when fiat first started fully galvanising a car. and then it filtered down. though i thought all tipos were galvanised from the start of production in 1988!
well doors bonnet and wings actually and top half of shell not galved only half way up lolI know all the Panda were fully galvanised from Panda number 1, but they never done the doors except on the very last Panda's, hence why the doors always rooted away
