Well 3rdstrike has been diagnosed with cancer <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> I was packing her up with my stuff when moving out of my dorm room, and happened to look into the wheel well. While trying to brush off a chunk of dirt i put two fingers into my frame.
I went up and down that frame with a hammer this past fall and it was solid as a rock, just couldn't take Maine winter. I leave for Basic this wednesday, so when I get back in October I'll try to patch it as best I can, but I think its time to upgrade to a newer (2000+) rodeo and retire the old girl.
Its a sad day in my house for me <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

Bites the rust?
I used to live where vehicles rusted out. Now, I miss the snow--but there's hardly a spot of rust on my 93 Amigo.
Sorry to hear about it; I have hearing these vehicles go.

I would pray for healing, but I only do people. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

Might help, since your going to leave it sit. Get some RustOleum Primer, the Professional grade stuff, Thats what its called, and spray it down to keep the rust from spreading too far. Im Planning to coat the frame in truck bed liner when I get the chance to get my Body Lift. Just as a Fail Safe Idea. Rusty Frames is not good, sorry to hear about your's. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />
