Benny's "problem areas"...

[Mike Shipman]

Having just posted a couple of pictures in the "Introducing Benny" thread in the General Discussion section which made Benny look rather good!! - in fact a bit "too good".

I thought I'd better post some of the less flattering piccies - his bodywork is generally good - no visible rust - lots of new metal welded in in 1998, however there are a few woodwork problems:

the n/s waist rail needs new timber scarfed in:



the n/s rear wheel arch needs the lap joint fixing:



the rear doors need replacing (Ive got a replacment pair now):



the whole interior needs replacing:



(looks like the previous owner had a BBQ in the back seat...!



So there are a few jobs to keep me occupied!

Regards, Mike

Yes, that will keep you occupied for a while!! Unless you have a Catalytic??
converter fitted the 'Unleaded only' sticker is superfluous since leaded fuel
will not harm the unleaded head.

Looks like someone got it too hot whilst welding

Nice car.

Looks like the sides could do with a re-varnish/re-stain (whatever was used) to keep them in good nick and door repairs as mentioned. Otherwise, lovely car!
