W210 Rust: How Best to Address?
Well, Murray, my 98 E300, goes in today for some rust repair. How much I have done professionally and how much I do myself (with POR-15 and touch up paint) depends on the cost. My guess is that no body work has ever been done on the car.
Where I've noticed rust: All four wheel wells (only one visible from side) Trunk lock Various bubbled spots here and there Crossmember below radiator The spring perches look to be in good shape....but I will have them carefully inspected. I'm not a fanatic when it comes to cosmetics, but within reason I want it done right. Those of you with a W210, have you found that dealing with rust is a constant ongoing concern? Or if I decisively deal with things at the 16 year mark, could I be set for another 10 years or so?
