"Stonechip"

Hi everyone, I have just fitted new: sills, crossmember and rear chassis legs, and stipped the underside of my 63 minor to the metal, what I'd like to know is, would "stonechip" be a good enough protector of the underside if I sprayed over it with waxoyl?. Thanks in anticipation. Sam.

Hi Cam, Sorry to hear about all your manifold problems. I have to say that these-days, workman-ship & quality seem to come a very distant second place, behind quantity. As you say I wonder would they make one of the same quality for a Jag, Don't think so some how!!!. All the best, with THIS REFI...

Hi Chris, I'm not sure what year she is, as I did not get the log book with her, but going by the registation number, she should be about 1969. She is off the 2dr saloon variety. Hope this helps.
