Well the major rust spot to look out for are around the front suspension towers,under the passenger and drivers mirrors,on the inside of the doors along the bottom edge,in and around the fuel neck/filler and around the boot seal. I also like to stick my head underneath the car to see if it has any major scrapes on the under the body or crash damage ie clamp marks on the seal panels,bent front reo ,creases in the skirts. Also lift the spair wheel cover up have a look at the beaver panel make sure the sealer looks original or it could also be a sign of crash damage. 1 last thing have a look inside the engine (take of the oil cap) and see if its clean or really black and dirty this will give u an indicator if the engin has been serviced regally or not also checking the dip stick for oil burn does the same sort of thing good luck with the Purchase

many many thanks to R33huntme

no worries something else to look at, the wear on the steering wheel Especially on the right side were u hang on and dents/wear marks on the drivers floor/Matt it's a tell tail sign of the kms the more were and tear the more kms it should have (u never can tell if the kms have been played with at least this will help

White C34 sitting on Main Street, Greensborough waiting to turn right up St Helena Road yesterday around midday.

I was in the yellow Stag which turned out of St Helena and went up Diamond Creek Road.

Another white stag, different to the one yesterday I think (the one yesterday had roof racks).

This time I passed it on the Greensborough Highway near the Civic Drive roundabout. I gave a toot and thumbs up on the way past (was on the red/white R1).

    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
