Japanese Rustoseums: Toyota Celica 2000GT RA25
A few days ago I asked Daniel O’Grady a similar question: why do the Japanese cars in Japan rust from the top down while they rust from the bottom up on the European soil?
It is funny because I can explain the European bottom up rust: we simply put salt on our roads during wintertime to fight ice and snow. However why the cars in Japan tend to rust from the top is a mystery to me…
Anyway, this beautifully crusty brown (photographed in black and white) Toyota Celica 2000GT RA25 is a good example of the top down rust:
Anyone got the answer to my question?

I am guessing cause the top srfaces of the cars get sunbsked till the paint peels then the salty ocean air goes to work and does the rest
Yes, that could be a viable answer. Thanks! 🙂
It could be because there is salt in the air from sea or maybe they have more aggressive rain or something like that.
That would be viable answers I guess.
