i think its either the mattress that it was sat on or the rug by the side that is impairing the view because it was ok when i looked over it

[Pie]

just looked more carefuly mate and its the new scuttle pannel.

[Puddings]

Well its that time of the week again that i go and see what has been done to my car

From last time Dave has put the scuttle repair on and replaced the A panel





He has also put strengthening plates on the inside of the panel because they were 'flapping around'

Dave is also plating up the air vents to help them stop rusting again



Other side



He has also started on the floor and sills on the passenger side which he said were worse that the drivers side







Thats is for today, he was only in th paint shop for two days but he should be on it all next week

Jesus Puddings, didnt realise it was that bad lol

[Puddings]

neither did i pie, at least it will be like new when i get it back Dave said it was in good nick for a 14 year old car with all original panels

[Pie]

My 86 red mini wasnt as bad as that lol

[Puddings]

But did Rover own the car then? because we all know the cut back on things and that is why they rust , like my floor were the holes are seemed fine to me but Dave ripped the sound proofing up and found that the sound proofing was holding the rust together

[Puddings]

quick picture from dave at the garage (sorry camera phone) its all fitted now, just got to wait till Saturday to pick up my roll cage, and then he will start rubbing it down ready for undercoat.
