Re: Dino restoration on YouTube

The root cause of Alfasud and Ferrari Dino corrosion is clear so far - poor treatment of the "body in white" for different reasons. Another reason is a complex body structure with many stiffeners and supporting layers - in general a positive design feature, as e.g. in Mercedes Pagoda SL or...
