Other than Volvo (I think) most cars rusted like mad until about 20 years ago when they all seemed to get much better. But some (e.g. 70s Vauxhalls) seemed to go before they were paid off, let alone 5-10 years of life!

That used to be a typical bloke's Saturday activity, if not at the football it was rubbing down and repainting rusty bits on their cars!
 
The Japanese were dire then in the 70s/80s for rust if memory serves
no worse than british rust boxes. i once bought a 1968 Anglia at 3 years old. chassis welding required for MOT.

That's ok, we will all be going around in boats by then, when the sea level rises, so no need for tyres. Though the salty water may still present a problem for the tin boats ?

They were notorious for rotting at the strut tops and rear spring hangers. The rest of the car was in a rush to keep up with them. Particularly the front wings around the headlights.
