Good video for a prospective buyer, shows you where all the steel is, for rust inspection.
DO NOT BUY:
My friend is an eastern european nut! his guns, cars, vacations and wife is from there! (no joke) He drove from Detroit to MD to this guy to buy this trablant or another one, the photos he recieved were 3 years old and when he arrived the photos did not show any rust but there was a considerable ammount of rust, this guy is a scammer!
stay away!

Frame rust I assume? The body is an extremely difficult to recycle plastic.
In reply to pres589:
Its more or less built like a Saturn, mostly steel, rockers, pillars, roof, shock towers, wheel houses, frame horns, floors, the composites were only used on the exterior body panels. Lots of steel in those to rust, mostly load bearing. Watch the video I linked, you'll get a real good idea how they're built.

Its ok, they were only breathing lead and VOCs back then, rather than cyanide compounds.
