Howdy

Did go over the car with a hammer yesterday.

Seems still quite solid in much of the sills, crossmembers etc.

Will get cutting soon, and see if it is go or no-go.

The weird thing, is that even it is rusty - it isnt that much worse than the other cars I've seen here in Denmark.

But this is the first car where I've been going at it so hard - normally you dont bring out a hammer and a chisel when examing somebody elses car before you buy it.....

Well, next time I'll go see a car, I WILL bring the hammer and chisel, though....

As well as pop the interior panel-covers - that area is a dead give-away for rust detection.
