Always thinking, that Rooster guy....

Car was parked in a carport in Phoenix. Had a windshield leak that ran from the windshield seal to the cowl area and down between the inner and outer fender. Collected with the water was a bunch of silt and organic matter to help the rust do it's job better.

Also, some stray cats decided that the passenger seat was a great place to pee.

It was on an Alpha Romero one of those cars that could be in a storage container vac sealed in a desert and still rust...LOL
Watch those rust inhibitors some are application specific as far as being used horizontally or vertically.

POR-15'ed some stock aluminium Cherokee wheels over a year ago, they have held up impeccably. Different application, but exposed to the same elements.
