Hello everyone

Long time lurker, first-time poster here. I appreciate this place for all the info about LC's. It's helped e learn a lot about the car I want to get for my family.

I found a 2009 LC with 129,xxx miles on it. I was concerned, however, because the car spent ten years in New York. I was obviously worried about rust. I took these pictures of the undercarriage and was hoping to hear what you guys thought about how it looked! Any info from you would be great and much appreciated. Stay well!

Looks pretty clean to me, no signs of excessive rust, but of course that’s only to the extent of the photos.

Its (only) 11 years old so I wouldn’t expect too much rust, but some of the 100 series I’ve seen at that sort of age have shocked me no end, rear axle mountings rotted both ends, and front wishbones really badly rusted and such.

good luck :thumbup:
 
Agree with Clive, from pictures that looks pretty damn good. I have a 2006 120, and there is rust all over underside, not unusual, I understand. Fortunately no rot and I have the time to treat.
 
Looking at the underside of your truck looks like it could have been sprayed with an oil at some point, very common in NY state
