Buying a defender 90 300tdi, Advice on some bubbles / oxidisation

Hey peeps, Im currently looking at buying a 90, I think ive found one and got sent some pics, Anyways the only parts that concern me is some bubbling / oxidisation. Its in a couple of places.

Rear door - not too concerened can change that out,
Lower sill outers ( where rocksliders would go i guess )
Just on the bottom of the B post on the outside.

How could this be treated also what could this lead too???
The rest of it is great little to no rust and its a 300tdi








Sorry for the small pics, i dont know how to make them larger, so if you would be kind enough to save as then view and let me know. cheers peeps

thats pretty shiit condition for the year,,i would look for a better example or get that one at a bargain price so you can afford to tart it up

where about is that ?
looks like it seen sea or sand

I'd get under it and check out the chassis - gawd knows what might be lurking under there.

Have you actually been to see it? What's the chassis like? Make sure you tap it with a hammer...
