Hi I know thus has been mentioned b4 but mainly as a preventative measure

I've just got my beloved back from TVRt and altho much lighter in the wallet I'm a bit worried about the news that the chassis is rusty and that this is potentially a big problem in the next few years, talk of removing the shell...mucho expensive-o

:throws huge pile of money into a pile and chucks in match:

It's not a problem right now but will be in the next few years. Has anyone else found themselves in this position and if so can I prevent the problem getting worse particularly as I dont drive the car daily oct-march anyway.

I suppose I'm wondering whether I ought to get up to speed on waxoyling and whether, in peoples experience thats going to sufficiently arrest the decline?

Oh well you live and learn

Hi,

Is that £120 or £1200?

Thanks I'll give them a call and see what they say

Cheers Stephen

Out of interest does anyone have any schematics (probably asking too much wrt a TVR I know) or a drawing of the chassis so I could get an idea of what I'm getting into

Cheers, didn't mean to doubt you but sometimes it feels like you have to pay a mechanic that much to wave a spanner at the car

Will definitly give them a call as I was told it's fine ass long at it doesn't get any worse so it sounds like a few quid now could be a life saver
