One thing I've noticed with regard to TD124 motor units; The condition of the chassis shipped to me in recent years, has declined. It is as if the market is scraping the bottom of the barrel for sellable units.

Since I photo-document each TD124 restoration that I undertake, this can be seen within the more recent projects I've done.

True enough, it would take a higher power to heal rust. The mkII td124 units, instead of using zinc plating on the steel parts, used chrome. And the chrome, if not stored indoors where the atmosphere is ammenable to humans, does allow rust. Something to watch out for in a mkII.
