Well, as far as Fla... (Jacksonville says the CarFax)

That's where mine is from and it's in quite fine shape re: rust. The windsheild is speckled, paint could be better. But she'll not crumble to death.

Of course it hates its new home in NE with sub-zero, extra dry cold air, but hey all the tubes and pipes "cured" in high humidity and warm air. What do you expect! :)

Not a lick o rust though. And the rubber is quite, well, rubbery.

Did earlier 240s have the thick undercoating, looks like tar, under the whole car?
