Damn man, that just made my gte look easier to restore. Best of luck man, and in what I have learned till now here in mk1ok, anything can be saved metalwise, and I believe that even more now, since I saw DeadEye's resto thread |

You would probably regret carrying on with it half way through.
When you have rot as bad as that on the front chassis legs there must be some serious rot elsewhere especially the rear chassis legs and inner sills. _________________ [Click here to pay ransom to view photos] |
