Recently aquired this 90 for parts so thought i would document the rust areas, the area below the windscreen is very susceptible, water just running straight thru to the engine bay at this stage, 75s i have found are very susceptable to this area also, once the area below or behind also goes, it is straight into the front compartment for any water, straight onto electricals and your feet!  :'(

Of all the 90s i have had i have never seen rust come up in this area, unusual, the car looks to have been resprayed in recent years as it has a fantastic spray job, perhaps this is respray related, not enough care taken?  :o

Nice rust free panel for a 1986 model, does everyone know that 90s only came with this Bertone badge on the drivers side of the car from the factory?

This is the third 90 i have purchased where as someone has sourced another badge to put on the passenger side thinking i guess that it had fallen off/missing  :o

Obviously the headlights are gone, but if anyone is stuck for a 90 part, do not hesitate to message, happy to help out at a fair price  :)

Hello Richard, as stated up top "aquired for parts", as photoed rusty but pretty good otherwise, will definantly contribute to the wellness of the two 90s in my collection plus help alot of other people out all over the world, you do not realize till you go worldwide but there is still alot of dam 90s out there, I have freighted 90 parts to almost every sector if the world, unbelievable, from the Phillipines to Greece, the ugly duckling has a good following, the future of the 80s, you have to love it, especially first series, green interior light plus futuristic gauge console, too cool to be true!  :o

Aaahh,   brings back memories VeeSix!   Hang on a minute.....  my memory reminds me I have a 90 up in the top shed with some firewall/plenum rust to be repaired....... ;D

Speaking of worldwide parts.  Only six years back I shipped a pair of 105 camshafts to, of all places, ITALY!!!!

This was under the black plastic covers 90s have on their sill tops, not just a bubble!

Removed that rear vent cover you were talking about in another thread Paul, pretty happy with the removal, a slight bend at the bottom but removed pretty much straight, surley and slowly is the best removal method for these units  ;)

It helps via removing the inside panel to access the back of the unit to push tabs out, the top tab is easy access  :)
