    Got all the bolts from YRM. All A4-80 stainless except the big fekkers at the end of A frame. I thought about doing it on quiet lane, but as it’s sorn’d it would be just my luck if local Heddlu came along and busted me.

    A frame on. Bolted but not torqued yet. Dilemma........ The Disco is being worked on, on a slight slope which goes down from front to back and also down left to right. Reading stuff, it says car should be level and bounced up and down at the rear, and then torque up bolts. .... Any...

    White vinegar rust removal

    Right........ After 2 weeks....... A quick clean over with wire brush ..... Taaaa daaa Had one or two lumpy bits of rust still on , but fell off when tapped with hammer. Not sure if 2 weeks was too long.....calliper metal seemed to have a softness to it as I was wire brushing...

    I soaked the big A frame nuts in release oil for days/weeks, and n/s one came off quite easy. The other one started ok but had to get heat gun on it halfway through. ........ I think heat would be the way to go if they are ba****d tight.

    Yup, slowly though. :( At the mo. I’m just concentrating on the centre area so I can get A frame back in once I’ve painted sides of chassis. Then get the n/s side bit of floor in and welded. I know I’ve got the ‘Pyramid’ to do on the end of round crossmember, and haven’t been up the o/s...

    All weldid up. First coat of red. Welded brace on o/s wheel arch to pillar to stop it moving as the n/s one had moved a bit and door lock needs adjusting a tad.

    Well, didn’t achieve much today. Long story.....you might want to get a cup of tea.... Plan was..... to weld another patch in n/s wheelarch coz I wasn’t happy with the amount of spot weld holes that wuz there. Also, weld a patch in the tank fixing mount.....thought about how I would tackle...
