Hi everyone- new to the forum. Interested in seeing peoples journeys with rust
My 2005 land cruiser has substantial rust and a mechanic has actually turned down doing work on it. Another bodywork guy said it’s bad but he’s seen worse. I have a budget of 1k - 1500 to fix but seems like no one will want to touch it.. granted I’ve only asked these two fellas
I don’t mind spending a bit of money but I get really disheartened when people throw their hand up and say scrap it.
I just really want options and opinions on what I should do - enginewise all runs like clockework. I still owe £3500 on it (bought it for £5500) feeling a bit depressed and ripped off. Pics of damage for attention. Thanks for reading
EDIT removed pics apologies privacy concern as sellers number visible
