I have been involved with 4 SIDS inspections, all older aircraft. All needed some level of structural repairs but one high wing aircraft was horrifying due to severe corrosion in the wing attach points.

Its clear by the lack of factory corrosion protection, that Cessna never intended the aircraft to fly for 50+ years and certainly didn't build them for that life.
