    Just wait till it's cold, pissing with rain, the service area is full of puddles and you've 15 minutes to fix a bent bottom arm

    Being IN them is the only "good" place

    Nice one, Adam.
    See the usual crappy Ford steel showing the normal rust damage on the bonnet
    Got a fair bit of work ahead of you, but it'll be worth it

    hmmm It's worth getting a trained MOT tester to give the body and suspension pick up points a once over. Hopefully it'll all be cosmetic or easily repairable.
    Mates building an A40 Farina for next years Monte classic and got caught out. Now into it's 2ndmonth of welding/repair and we think thre's only 3 panels that are original now
