Mate, if that is the extent of it, you are doing very bloody well.

Did you manage to get your welds into more of a sealed seam?

If not you should 'glass before you put down bog.

Bog is pourous and the rust will just reappear. The fibreglass will seal off the moisture.

Well the drivers floorpan needs to be replaced just infront of the crossmember as he's almost a flintstone mobile.

Not my welds, my mate is learning how to use his mig. I don't know why he didn't try one long bead of weld though. So far it has all cost sfa

It's zinc aneal i think he called it so it won't rust. it just has a light skim of bog to make it pretty again.

We have run out of time and i have to come back to Brisbane and finish it under my house.
