I recently posted a picture of a rusted Porsche 356 on the True Driving fb page and there were a ton of negative comments. Firstly, I never understand the hate, but I guess that will always exist. The whole “rust” look has been around for a couple years now, and although I never liked when people purposely rust a hood or fender, there is just something about finding an old beat up rusted classic, and keeping the body just the way it is. Of course, restoring a car properly is always something that will get the most respect, but the rust look sure does add a ton of character. It may not be for everyone, but just because someone enjoys a rusted Porsche 356, it doesn’t mean they are “doing it wrong”. I like it. It’s different. And different is always welcome.
