Stinkwheel Posted January 27, 2020 Posted January 27, 2020 Jeeez that was/is rusty, I hadn’t appreciated how bad it was when I saw the car in the FoD.I’ve welded inner wings that bad before on my old 17D. But that front panel, almost nothing left. Well done to you and your brave welder for taking that one on. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Open up the sill reveal was much as anticipated, sill are the only body panels I was able to buy for it. All my cars that have needed welding ( ie most ) have been worse on the nearside. Welder says it’s down to the road puddles and debris being thrown up. Six-cylinder, egg and Stinkwheel 3

My 2cv was dinitroled early on in its life and has the original sills still. Stinkwheel 1

Six-cylinder Posted January 30, 2020 Author Posted January 30, 2020 I got the threatening SORN letter from the Trevi. I received the new V5C 17-1-20 and their letter is dated 25-1-20. A bit slick as I had waited weeks to get the V5C for it. richardmorris 1

AnthonyG Posted January 30, 2020 Posted January 30, 2020 That Renault is gorgeous, and I say that as someone who thought 14s were a load of crap in the 1980s - mainly because all the UK ones were fucked with rot by the time I noticed them. The seat fabric is reason for purchase alone! I also love the driving/fog lights, although how much use they were when mounted that low is debatable.
Zelandeth Posted January 30, 2020 Posted January 30, 2020 The seat trim very much reminds me of the material the seats in my van under the covers fitted by Autotrail are made from. LightBulbFun 1
