Thanks Ford...

Well my old BA Mk2 just passed the 5 year mark (registered in March 06) and I recently noticed the dreaded rust patch in the RHS of boot after giving my car a full detail. I am in the process of preparing my car for sale as I am almost ready to sign for a new GS.

Anyways when I discovered the rust I felt annoyed and really dissapointed and drove to my local dealer who I haven't seen for years. I mentioned the rust and was told I had 3 days left before the 5 year corrosion warranty expired. Photos were taken and sent to Ford, I had honestly thought that Ford would say NO. I think what is most dissapointing is that I have mates and family with cars that are older than 5 years with alot less rust!

Earlier today I got a call saying the repairs are all approved by Ford and within 3 days the rust will be gone....YAY!!!!!

If Ford had said no I would have been extremly dissapointed and at the time I felt like ditching a new GS and going elsewhere. But, now the rust is being repaired and I will soon be getting my 5th Falcon!!!!

Thought I would share the good news considering all the doom and gloom around the world

Also, what can I coat this joint with in the boot to stop any new rust occuring???? Obviously it has been a common rust spot for the B series Falcons. I don't want the person who buys my car to deal with spending $$$ fixing rust...I am a fussy owner.
