Once I detail it I will get some pics up. Right now it's completely filthy. Let's just say it's really nice when it's clean

Nope. No rust aside from one tiny bubble on the top of the windshield. This car will be garaged winters for the rest of its life. It's actually not a VT car. It came from somewhere down farther south so this is its third year in VT.

It's not bad enough to need new metal though. It's just one spot. The windshield needs resealing anyways. It leaks

I got an estimate to get it fixed yesterday actually. Was not happy with the estimate.

trust me, its WORTH paying to have that done correctly. Like the cooling system this is one place you DO NOT want to pinch pennies. If you want Pm me with the est. im currious to what they want to charge.

Yes, I know where not to pinch pennies but you don't seem to understand the whole broke high schooler thing haha.
I know i need to do it but I'm not ready so shell out $770 to have the trim replaced, rust repaired, and roof painted. It's just ridiculous.

I'm gonna keep shopping around. I know I can do better somewhere else.
