2000 Toyota Rav4. Just an example of every day challenges as a mechanic in the rust belt.Step 1: use chipping hammer to knock off rust. step 2: drill out remains of cotter pin. step 3: pound socket 3 sizes smaller than original nut onto rusted nut and hope it comes off. step 4: if all else fails use cutting torch to cut nut/stud off. step 5: prepare speech to customer for the increased cost of repairs.
quick instructions (for full details, follow the link posted below to Instructables):
- positive anode (red cable, joined with blue and brown cables to two more pieces of steel) attracts the rust
- negative anode (black cable) is the piece of steel to be cleaned from rust
- the solution is water and bashing soda (sodium carbonate)
- 6volt battery charger
- 6 hour at least, but the more the better

I was trekking through the small town of Livingston Texas with a friend when we happened to see this rusted truck along the road side. The truck was just begging for us to stop and photograph it! Unfortunately, I couldn't find any identifying marks that would give me a clue as to the make/model of this unique looking truck.
Disued Rail on a Siding which used to be used for a Tourist Railway. This is located near the Blast Furnace Park.
This batch was taken with a long lens through a chain link fence. The trucks were too close to get the whole of any of them, but it was a fun shoot anyway!
Detail from the Orange Road Bridge in Delaware County, OH. Built in 1898, closed for a few years now (don't know the last time it was painted). All the rust made it much more interesting...
Close up shot of Nairn Harbour wall. See salt and metal don't mix, but give amazing texture and colours.
This is near the Cliff House Inn in Ventura. An island off highway 1 (I believe man-made) is attached to the mainland by a bridge. I was hoping to get on the island and take pictures but it is heavily guarded. This is an old rusting keypad entry. Now it's secured by a chain link fence and barbwire.

Went out via Cooroy this morning to photograph some rusty farm equipment. After that I saw this cute Kelpie outside the Noosa Library in Wallace Park, Queensland.
She looks better than the farm equipment :-) A little sad, having to wait outside on her own.
The Kelpie is an Australian sheep dog successful at mustering and droving with little or no command guidance. They are medium-sized dogs and come in a variety of colours. Kelpies have been exported throughout the world and are used to muster livestock, primarily sheep, cattle and goats.
Robert Kaleski published the first standard for the Kelpie in 1904.
