The underside of yours looks like mine did Sunday Morning. It took me all day to remove all the old oil/underseal with a wire knot brush on the angle grinder and I turned into a coal miner doing it ;) Mrs Rat wasn't happy when I left half of the underside in the bath at the end of the day ;)

The oversills where fitted by the previous owner but at least they have been done well with the old sill removed first. The boot floor needs a repair and so does the rear boot hinge panel so this will be done before the valance is fitted. I've also got to repair the floor under the drivers pedals then I can paint the under side and finish getting the front on

I've got to go to a wedding this weekend so progress will be interrupted again ;) still hopping to get it on its wheels again for castle combe but its not looking likely at the moment
