Looks worse than it is. Its all just the factory paint/underseal flaking off and leaving the metal exposed and going rust colour. Its all solid from going round with a screwdriver poking here and there.

O/S has been patched before and looks solid around that still.

Just waiting for a set of wire wheel disc for the grinder to turn up and i'll have a hour going around it all and seeing whats what.
Will be good enough for what I want to do with it
Then time to break out the Transmig and plate some holes.
