We must be mad to keep these cars in the road, hole after hole, and it only looked like a pin hole  I've put 12 gauge on it, so it should last a view years  Only a few more places and then - No rot - For another year  Before  After

We all do it 24vman because we don't like wasting our hard-earned cash on more modern sh1tty Euroboxes that all look the same and will only break down due to cheap electronics that'll cost a fortune to diagnose/fix when they eventually breakdown.... Besides.... you cannot go sideways on command in a wrong wheel drive hatch!!!  Please keep up the restoration work mate!

Nice one 24vman. Funny how they always go there isn't it.

Just found both sills need doing - Really pissed - they should have been done when the car was sprayed two years ago. They were patched rather then replaced, and worse still, over the top on the rott.  Not happy ........
