Rust issue or too picky?
Hey guys....quick question....I am looking at grabbing a project car for my son and I and am new to the game at looking at 30 year old cars. I know where all the danger rust areas are, but hoping you guys can weigh in on if I am being to picky as a California spoiled owner! See photo......does the corrosion adjacent to the windshield alarm anyone? I'm a bit worried and wanted feedback from the group....help!

Link doesn't work. And please avoid cross posting in the future.

Edit: The link on your other post worked. That doesn't look like an E30. What kind of car are you looking at? A 2002? E21?

Wish the pic worked. i was curious what is considered rusty for Californians? Here in PA im working on a 1994 XJ and after removing the carpet some of the rust holes were big enough where a small child could crawl up through the floor and into car. Still not too bad imo.
