1 car shell for rust (rear N/s arch and front chasis legs to under body)
2 history of rear beam change referb
both of which could sway you to another shell as depending on how you tackle both depends on cost
Yes cheers for the reminder. Rear beam has been considered and is being budgeted incase, but will get done at some point anyway.
As for rust I know underneath someones jacked it up in wrong place so needs plate welding. Also top engine mount needs welding.
Theres few things with the body im going to sort while my dads on holiday next week so the rear arch is one of them. But luckily my dad was a welder so not too much a problem.
But thanks cully! Your thread on your spare engine has been read by me and my dad and will be keeping close eye. :-)
Ill brave the cold and get pictures of the head for you.
Heres pictures of the head.
You can tell a couple of the valves are catching the head.
Same but from opposite angle.
