Don't know, might be a bit windy around the nether regions? 🤪

Looks great, should come out very nicely. Keep us in the loop.

OK this is where im upto today.The pics are of the worst of the rust so its no too bad i think.

Looks like there is a fair bit of rust up in there. Are you going to take out the engine vent and luggage rack. I had the same type of rust issues and couldn't really see a way of doing a decent job without removal. lot of work but worth it in the end.

hey all im still goin with the repairs.As you can see ive cut the firewall out and started on the rust under the air vent.Not as bad as it looks.
Also built a trolley for the body.
Luke i dont need to pull anything out can get to it all.Check out the pics.
