Just got some pictures of a car I inquired about purchasing. ..... I also asked him to get some shots of the rockers.
Maxxfish: Note that CS coupes have a sheetmetal cover over the rockers, so photos won't show you much. You need to remove those covers to see what the structural elements look like underneath them.
As others have written, given that rust is showing in
multiple places on a car that appears newly painted, this one seems suspicious. All coupes have some rust - you will never find one truly rust-free, so at some point you have to take some risk. You never know how much rust a car has until you get the paint off - of course, by then you own what ever problems you discover.
In my opinion, unless this car is really inexpensive, it doesn't look like a great candidate.
