Thank you some great lads on here that really helped out As for the build long way to go yet it's getting there will be worth it in the end

I'm hoping so once weldings done Il probably send it to the garage next door to replace the discs pads AC condenser and control arms and bushes and any other things that could be mot related before it's has the respray and underseal so they don't get marked or disturbed

Totally agree

I always read them mate Mines same nobody replies But on facebook it's active and tbh I really don't know why same questions no build threads it's a proper flawed platform if people just made one comment a day this place would be on top form again
-
jase what you have done with this was great i enjoyed your build thread from start to finish and il be following your other over on retro rides aswell loved seeing the car midway through your build just a shame i never got over to see it completed
-
Agree I still post etc and check daily The Facebook format is shocking for car builds etc and if there's any issues it's always a link to this site people need to start using this site again

Gutted really enjoyed this thread was it the sills that finished it off ? Great news on another glanza though be sure to start a new build thread

Thanks for all the kind words gents These cars are getting old now so want to be able to share my findings where potential problems with rust are

This has been repaired with a rust free one off a donor thanks to trevstar BIG THANKS for this mate

Before

This exposed the inners that showed mainly surface rust and small area needing some TLC near the rear arch where it meets the sill thankfully overall they are in decent condition so was repaired welded and treated ready to be rust proofed
