It's pretty confined, so I'd rate it as a fluke for sure. There are no signs
of repairs ever having been done. Generally in situations like this
everything below the rust looks pretty terrible also, but not the case here.
Maybe the PO just NEVER washed the car, and years of salt and dirt built up
in the fenders. If you look at some of the other pictures, you can see that
he also used DRYWALL SCREWS to reattach the trim! What can I say... I'll
treat her better than he did. ;)

-92 S4 (upgrading me from coach to first class)
-84 urQ (^hey! that engine was supposed to be for me! wtf !?)
