Thanks SunnyTim is up in the shed now have got some real space issues..
The Car was last regoed in SA and i was told it got driven up to Darwin. the subframe was the scary bit. the bolts had no hold and some one had just stick welded some 6mm plate from the floor bracing to it. they pumped heaps of that rubbery tar stuff into the bottoms of the A pillar tho.
What is my best option of trying to stop the cancer spreading. once its in the steel i know its going to be hard. ive got KBS rust seal and will be doing floors and underbody but all inside the cross members and up in the dash behind fire wass ect. do i just try and fish oil it all???
