and a body off job to get at it properly, but being a pomme, rust would be huge, yours might be a small patch hole.

again not too sure if I am helping much ;-)

Yeah, yet to dig down to the depth to find the real extent of the rot.

Al, its another one, a big window 57, just arrived at my place this week. Cant decide if Im gonna use it as a donor or a resto at the moment.

Hmm....
