When the sedan was imported from Germany to The Netherlands in April 2010 (before i've got him),
only a little 2cm rust spot was on the car at the right wheel arches,

The next photo's complain everything about never wash it,
and not suspending the car to put for a sleep inna garage in the winter times.....


2 years later....
















The left side wasn't that bad but already start rusting..

The right sill was ****-up.. :shock:







The right sill was rotting like hell :evil:,
just pressed easily with one finger through the sheet metal..
So the first thing that had to be done with my sedan,
was the recovery/paint job for the wheel arches and sills.

Here the results after the paintjob..

































Also the complete bottum is sprayed with tectyl/tar,
man mi just love this new fresh paint! :D

So this was the recovery treatment, soon i will update and post pix of lowering the sedan, it's already dropped more then before! 8)

 

Great restoration of those rusted areas!

My sedan looks like this by now:

 

Great to see a car of this age the proper love and attention deserved, sadly most people leave paint off the list or the last thing to do. Such a difference it makes!
