I guess they rust even when garaged and not used during the Winter?
Bad news but hope you get it sorted soon.

Ouch.  Those rust bubbles always hide bigger problems. Let's hope the front panel has escaped without too much rust. |

I've treated the front panel with a rust preventive. a new product from hammerite, it eats into the rust after 24 hours wipe of residue and apply their own rust prevention paint.

Flipping heck, you've been busy.
Will you be doing all the repair work yourself Tim? What about the body spraying?

Bodywork I'm do myself but I've got someone else to do the spraying.

Good that you're saving yourself a fortune by doing the welding then. I wish I was half that clever.

It's a Sportspack so sadly rust is never far away. Doing a fine job by the way.  |
