i got a audiobahn 18x 4000rms bub thta was blown.i set it in the corner of the yard in 05 and forgot about it, cuz imo its a 100lb paper wieght. i found a recone kit iwas bonna give it a wd40/pb blast bath disassemble it and paint it and recone it. could rust have messed up the motor to where its un-usable?

pics are bad

ps. believe it or not the way i had it sitting the inside didnt get that much moisture coil still moves freely! this thing has a 5" voicecoil, im gonna take i apart it disassembles to 10 different pieces and powdercoat it. recone is 200 and ill just put it on craigslist lol
