Spanner (spa-n-r) Any tool to remove rust from Chris's truck, it creates a span between metal components once connected by real metal.

Rust consists of hydrated iron(III) oxides Fe2O3·nH2O and iron(III) oxide-hydroxide (FeO(OH), Fe(OH)3). Given sufficient time, oxygen, and water, any iron mass will eventually convert entirely to rust and disintegrate. Surface rust provides no protection to the underlying iron, unlike the formation of patina on copper surfaces.

So Ice, in other words Iron was entirely the wrong material to make cars from!

Sorry to see Ezer, I hate watching classics return to mother earth from whence they came!

Chris: You should see the rust particles that I've gotten out of my torque box, filled a 5 gallon bucket and there's more to come I'm sure.
