  • Indiana winters must be salty

    Look at this poor old girl,this looks exactly like any Studebaker from around here thats been winter driven. At least the glass didn't rust.

    Wisconsin winters are just as bad & this one was undercoated,a real shame,as it is now a expensive builder or a parts car depending on the undercarriage

        Pennsylvania's been using a lot of salt for a long time. Now they are using this new liquid salt that's applied before the snow starts falling. It's voracious! It will eat your rotors and drums and it finds aluminum especially appetizing.

          This was a big reason why I bought my car from California. I couldn't find anything in the Detroit/Windsor area that still had rocker panels or floors.

            The tin-worms sure can consume metal and leave "you-know-what" behind. An international pest, that.
