Never mind the rust Gary, there are some big swirl marks in that first photo!

Good luck with the work, it is a nice car, when I saw it at the Henry Bros open day last May.

Don't know Ian will need to remove the carpet to get a better look, but seems to be just he seem.

Toby nice car mate Legacy, just saw it at the bottom of your sig. Mare I've just started to strip mine. Any idea how to get the front seats out. I can't see the front bolts?

More pic's from today. Same on the Offside as Nearside, another hole but not too bad. And one in the nearside floor
