    Not far from me ,has a galv chassis too although it's also rusty 25 years old so you would expect rust I would expect it needs B + C pillars and 5 doors also

    Bent rear cross member

    Didnt know you were in the club I never saw it till I got out to look at what made the loud bang ! I'm more annoyed that it will rust now as the galv has gone where the metal has creased I may splash out on a hydraulic porta power
