Hey guys,

This week I repair the touring's engine bay by cutting rust out and welding new metal in.

This is the first time I've done this before so don't take any notes :)

Enjoy

Steve

I didn't realise it was a wallet add,I thought it was a paradox that the car was emptying it!

Wow! buy a nibbler tool for cutting old metal out - runs off a bettery drill - and not at all noisy!
