All Repairs to rust have been stripped then rust killed then fibreglassed or carbon fibred, All old steel repairs i found have rusted out around welds and rusted from the inside, Sadly some people just do not go to the extent required when patching and killing rust. I'm spraying the whole car in a primer filler compound then a sand and a jet black hi gloss acrylic. Hopefully will get chance to take a few cuts off another body soon for seriously rusted areas. Will update progress as it comes along

Yeah that's correct. Still keen on that body if you've got it? Just yell out when its stripped. Any chance i could grab a photo of your throttle linkages from fire wall to carb. Mine are missing so will fabricate something up.
