Got Primer?

Sometimes you just want to find something positive to say about a vehicle, but it's not easy. Take this Pontiac 6000, for example. What leaps out first are the three separate areas of primer paint, two of which have lots of rust already showing through. The third one looks to have more body filler than metal. Big primer spots on a car are often a sign that the end is near, but what makes this one all the more sad is that it's obvious it's had a door replaced, and the new door is the worst one for primer and rust. It's like tossing a cinder block onto a leaky canoe, it's not really helping things. Well, unless the original door was a whole lot worse, maybe smashed or ripped from its hinges or something.

But I was supposed to be coming up with something positive. Hmm. Well, at least the wheel covers match. Sure, the front one looks like it's somewhat broken, but they match.
