I actually once met that owner at the gas station and asked him to let me know whenever he was ready to get rid of his Insight, regardless of condition -- we even exchanged contact info. Oh well.
By the way, his was the only "rusty" Insight I've ever seen. Yes, aluminum will corrode in eastern Ontario.  |
Fixed it for you...

Rust is Iron
oxide.
Corroded Aluminum is Aluminum
oxide.
Sorry... I just felt like nit picking...
I wonder though...
If it had Zinc anodes, like a outboard boat motor.
It may have helped to prevent corrosion of the body.
