hey guys, when you jack off the jacking points ( all four ) and the jack goes thru the sills and floor i think its time to go. Tim said surface rust but its gone underneath - its been sitting with grass etc growing under it for the last few years and shes rusty as - 2 inches of rear guard would need to be cut 1 new a pillar passenger side has 3 inch hole, sills gone, roof has rust holes, boot haddit, all rear slam panel would need walls magic ......... the list goes on - much better to buy that white one on TM at the mo and start with a good one - lisa also wants a wagon but we haven't found a good one yet.
When we tryed to roll it off the trailer i pushed the brake pedal down and it locked up all the brakes.
had to tie it to another car and pull the trailer out from under it.
then had to bash the calipers and pads etc to free them, as well as the drums.
Will try get it to run asap and throw some new brake fluid at it and drive it round the block till it all frees up - that's how rusty she is hahahaha.
