So after I had done my bits of bodywork decided it would probably be a good idea to take it down the body shop, let them take off bumpers and see what is lerking underneath and also there was a dint in the roof and side panel that I wanted sorting they were also going to wax oil the underneath for me.
So went and spoke with the guy who would be doing the job and got it booked in for a month down the line.
Meantime I thought I would give them a head start and take out some of the interiour.
And 1 hour later :grin:







After taking out all the internals of the old girl I noticed there were a couple more rust spots

A week later went back down to see how things were progressing.



















Work coming along nicely good to see the rust starting to get removed.
