okay thanks

can anyone tell me if they rust, i was thinking those in the northern states wuld have some showing by now?? i just want to know any trouble areas i should be loking at when buying
Depends on if it was driven in the snow or not. I live in MI and I'm storing my stang come winter... the road salts are bad.

If it had been driven in the snow, I'd give it a couple years to start showing rust... depending on how well it was kept.

if you dont have TCS then get some V-6 wheels with 225/55/r16s tires cause you want a narrow tall tire in the snow
