Alignment shop was on their 3rd attempt before they figured out the issue. You could press a screw driver against it and it would feel fine, but a good strike would go right through.

Engine only had 50k and the interior and body panels looked great. All new brakes and other items. It became a donor for a different car that some guy was restoring.

Yeah that’s some odd rust, looks like sold metal around it. I’d be concerned about that area and keeping things in the right spot. Good luck!
