Looking at few 1st gens for a second car to play around with. I also have a 4.7 4th gen that I use as my daily, but have always wanted a 1st gen. Some have rust in my area (southeast), but wondering how bad the rust is on the following. Looks like this is the rear crossmember above the rear tire slot. Wondering how bad this is? Fixable? Not even sure the part # but looks like Rear Cross-Member - Toyota (5129135080).
Anything else to look out for outside of leaks, and timing chain on these 22re?
