Nice rust.

Aw Novalad - I'm sorry I missed you _ I actually went home yesterday as I wasn't well... I'm on shift tomorrow and sat from 7 am till 4 pm if you can get down.....

J4ames - thanks hun, don't really know what to do with it at the mo, just concentrating on getting the rust under control first, then will either put it back to standard or street-sleeper it I think.... always open to suggestions though :)

just thought I'd update this thread as I Have got as far as I'm taking her and she is on ebay at the mo.....

I did get the rest of the welding and bodywork done though and in the end she looks quite good.....

Oh and all she failed her MOT on was wiper blades and a wheel bearing..... so I'm kinda glad no-one bought her for £70 when I posted her on here before I MOT'd her :)
