under the weld

It'll only get worse. That rust by the anti-roll bar bracket would suggest that the chassis from that point back is pretty shot, the seam along the bottom of the chassis is badly rusted if you go along it with a pick hammer I'm sure you'll find holes.

meaning it had it then :confused::confused: or can it be fixed

[kevinrbeech]

It can be fixed but I would suggest that you, or someone that will be honest about it, get under the car with a torch and a small hammer to explore the real extent of the rot. Unfortunately I found a hole lkie that on mine 6 months ago but I'd already been welding the surrounding areas for the last 4 years. You can patch holes like that, as I have, but I'm well aware that the chassis is past its best and any serious off-roading will only reveal weaknesses with in rear chassis. The front is quite possibly rust free. Also worth checking the sills and the chassis outriggers.
Don't throw it away, just have a good look before you throw good money away.
