What really gets my goat nowadays is the number of people that go to the trouble of posting ads and then don't bother answering their phone, or email messages! Quite often they don't even have a proper voicemail... "Your message will be converted to text", or "Your number will be sent as a...

Obviously the 6.9 became too much for even the likes of the great KB! Seems like he bought it purely because it was a Euro with rare options like ABS and didn't consider the amount of rust it had.... I'm rather surprised he didn't buy a better one, but not surprised he didn't have the time for...

Isolated isn't always a good thing!! :eek::eek:

Some great results (from a local company too)! https://www.facebook.com/pages/Dash-Designs/215317978480153?pnref=story It looks like they can do almost anything to the interior of a car, as well as veneer restoration.... Seems they don't have a website yet.

Video!! We want video!!!

Rust created by a partially blocked hole: As it is now: Removed as a donor for others. I thought I'd be smart and cut it as one section (like new cars are built today), but they're much smaller! I'll probably have to cut it further since it's too heavy to move by myself. Doors are great.

Front roof section (3 layers!!): Rear: Next to the fusebox showing the hole that's been partially blocked by sealer (factory):

Rear section: 1/4 bracket: Rear subframe: Very sad (why does it remind me of the Red Pig):

The culprit: Rear parcel shelf: Box section including seal: Boot and rear 1/4: Boot lip:

Box section under the front of the rear seat: What's that rattling noise: Scary rust under the rear of the back seat. This is sealed.... Rear wheel arch:
