They are just jealous of it.
I wouldnt of even attempted to hide the rust, embrace the shed!
I can't. I've never had a car with visible rust before so I have a bit of a rust complex now. I wouldnt of even attempted to hide the rust, embrace the shed!
Looking out my window at the car right now and I have to say, (from 20ft) I've done a very good job.
Now it just looks like a crappy car, not a crappy rust bucket car.
ive been caught out a few times on ebay. Bought an MGF turned up every single panel was scratched, and stunk of fat man sweat.
Bought an Audi A4 exhaust fell off driving home and engine died a few days later.
So needless to say i try and view them beforehand now, but it you like a gamble ebay is the place, probably buy another though.

t penny shares you keep on buying, you're a true glutton for punishment.... 
Good effort OP!
Looks like a fun project. The M113 500 is a brilliant engine and, bar a few oil leaks, should be fine. Gearboxes are good too, again keep an eye on the level.
The rust? Pah, par for the course with a Merc that age. Better than it having a dodgy respray and being done for £2,500...

Best result for me was waking up Sunday morning, looking under the car and not a single spot of oil.. Looks like a fun project. The M113 500 is a brilliant engine and, bar a few oil leaks, should be fine. Gearboxes are good too, again keep an eye on the level.

Took the cover off yesterday and looks pretty dry.
Gearbox oil a big job?

Only joking, I reckon you will make a half decent car out of that, £700, worth that for some entertainment, the cost of the slightly different interior wood or stitching on a new one.
