I didn't realise just how bad it was, frightening really the amount of botched repairs that become apparent when you start digging, fuel lines as well as being badly joined were quite perished, brake lines covered in so much waxoyl/hammerite that it was impossible to see the pitting and corrosion in them, flexible brake lines breaking down which was not to obvious with the protective springs around, an accident waiting to happen, I'm not saying theyre all as bad as mine but please have a closer inspection in these areas.

Hi JBP, With a bit of luck #369 will get back to how she was then, got to admit that at one stage I considered scrapping her, then I remembered what it's like to drive. I'll post more pics as work progresses.
