Yikes, that A post looks bad! The Maxi passed the MOT thankfully! I'm going to waxoil it's sills from inside asap - don't want it going the same way as this. The last owner was pretty good about rust prevention though luckily.

Have a good time! 90 , crikey!! Not been to Cornwall since I was about 12! Keep saying I'm going to go camping there but never seem to get round to it.

Oh, I'm glad the doors came off ok Chris! I couldn't move the screws and didn't want to knacker the heads so I just sprayed plusgas at them. I was really in two minds whether to sell the car as a project, glad I didn't now. I'm amazed it passed its last MOT when you look at the rot, the state of the top suspension joint rubbers etc and the brakes locking on. It'll be great following its progress, no rush though. I'll get those wings cleaned up and pop them up to you soon. The Maxi is in for its mot on Saturday - hoping for no surprises from that!

Hi, I'm Phil Truman from Sandbach. Bought a 1970 Wolseley 18/85 after falling for a very flowery eBay add from a dealer in Yorkshire. Entirely my own fault, paid far too much although got a third back from him later on but there you go, lesson learned. I've pondered whether to eBay it over the summer but decided instead to bite the bullet and get it roadworthy and structurally sound. Got some sills from Ray House along with a new radiator and also picked up some excellent wings off eBay. Happily Dave Tripplescrew put me in touch with Chris Chantrell for the welding 😀 I've also joined the landcrab club too! This afternoon I've been removing the interior and carpets ready for welding. The rear floorpans are fine and the front are much better than I thought they'd be. A previous owner had put really sticky soundproofing with like a bitumen backing on the front floor so that took a while to Attachments:
