I heard the EKs were prone to rust.

Its a good EK as long as there is more EK than rust
. Many have more rust than EK.
Wonder what those wheels are off, and whether they were a bolt-up fit?
Cheers,

they are Volvo rims I keep for picking up wrecks Harv, they fit OK but you only get 3 or 4 turns on the wheel nuts as they are so much thicker then a steel rim.

That is in amazing condition for an EK. Just a quick tidy up and Shahni can drive it to the Nats. Haha.
