Rust on stock exhaust + more

[Narshadda]

The rest of the engine looks ok...

[1989GT]

For the rear axle I'd remove the rust with a wire brush/ sand paper and hit is up with some undercoating/paint. The drive shaft you could paint but you could also throw it out of balance(probably not but it is a possibility). The exhaust there isn't much you can do, it's going to rust, unless you have it coated or it's stainless steel.

I like your air flow system...did you do that yourself or did it come like that when you bought it? I bought mine but it's got the plastic one.


My rear axle is rusted out to (same year), most likely weather damged. When the weather warms up I am going to take 1989GT advise.

My question would be is the undercoat and paint one and the same or 2 seperate types of paints? I've never done that type of work on a car. I've got undercoating done but only in the wheel wells and throught the doors (I guess my warranty doesn't cover it).

As for your exhaust now is the time to beef it up, since it's probably the original stock exhaust, and maybe get yourself some headers too.
