well been stripping the car today and got pics of the rust that caused me to break it

 

ahhh, it would repair. not as bad as mine was on the sills, and it was on both sides.

ashame for ya tho as it was a very nice looking motor.

once it starts it never finishes. you new one looks in great condition :)

are you modding you new one then??

lol oh yeah not right away though

If i can help with anything let me know :wink:

bit of a mess mate! :shock:

Exactly! Whilst it looks fixable one has to consider whether it's economically viable to do so; or just cut your losses and buy a new one!

 

And I reckon you did the right thing. Good luck with your new ZX mate.

I actually feel better about mine now! WOW!

 

Mine needs new sills I think, I'm getting the existing ones welded just to get through the summer, then as part of the Winter SORN project I'm getting new ones welded on, the whole car stripped, undersealed, anti-rusted and bare metal re-sprayed.
