About 20 years ago bought a RWA MG Midget for the wife, rod had gone through the block, car had a 2 pack paint job and looked fantastic. After stripping it out, found the car was rusted out, cut it up and took it down the scrappie.
I know how much effort, blood and tears has gone into your project, looking good, all the best with the last leg and looking forward to seeing the finished car.
