Good progress. If you're not building a concours car the best way is always just to chop the whole lot and start again. Creating exact replicas of the original metal is great, but you're just re-creating the reason that it rotted in the first place.

only time i'll be up is yorky meet and i dunno if i can make it. not in any rush either, got an engine to rebuild first ;D Matt are you coming down to the sheffield meet? ryan usually goes to that so swappage can be done, unfortunately i can't make it as the missus is working and baby seat won't fit in my bucket seat ;D
