There is a significant amount of rust on the bottom battery compartment and the cover is missing. There is also a large blemish on one side that appears to be more than a simple surface stain…. I suspect there may have been a battery leak. While the body material feels solid there, I wouldn’t be 100% optimistic that the discoloration could be removed by cleaning alone – a touch-up painting may be required.
