Ray did a lot of buggeration with weld-through primer in the backsides of the pressings, etc.

I don't think most would bother with that level of detail.

Given how often people throw them into hedges, making it look prettier for 2 or 3 years is probably good enough. If it's a garage queen and worth taking care of, it most likely isn't rusty in the first place. Fine line between useable and paranoid.

I bought a S2K last August. Over the Xmas I decided to underseal, only to find a rust sill and a line of rust running around the inner arch. Not something I wanted to find after only a few months of ownership and I am not wealthy. Currently trying to save some pennies for the work that is going to be needed and I am happy to see the amazing work done to this car are not very far from me. Can you confirm they are in Congleton?

Unfortunately he advised this was only done as a favour and he doesn't do this work
