Your missing the point. They make money one every car. They say they don't. But they do.

Been trying to tell everyone on this forum that for a while now. How unintelligent do you have to be to believe that, I mean the only people to say this anyway was top gear, and we all know how truthful top gear is don't we? *insert tesla reference here*

Someone educate me please, does the rust spread or is there a way of reversing it?
Also will the engine ever function properly again?
Sanding, surface prep & paint will reverse the process.

But would you do all that work to a car that you need to spend another $1/2 mil repairing the engine?
