[David Nock (RIP)]

Hi, me again. Having had 3 generation 1\'s, first one a 1983 Mark2, the second and third both being Mark 3\'s, built 1984/1986, I\'ve got a theory that the Mk3 body is the best lasting. Our 1st car was admittedly a "seaside car" before we got it but it didn\'t stand up to the rust bug as well as the later ones. I think galvanealed steel was being used later on. Anybody else noticed a difference in "drop apart rates"? Bottom of doors on The Mark 3 are perfect, but I\'d patched up the Mark 2 a couple of times by now. Also the Mark 2 chassis rail rusted and cracked just near the idler bracket.
Our present car is on a scruffy set of winter wheels at the moment and deserves a good polish up. I\'ll get some photos out in a week or so, if I can find out how to attach them.

You have to be a full member to post them or can you host them or use one of the picture hosting free companies and paste a link, or just email them to me and I\'l share them (post them for you)

A whole week off work to play with it...  Bliss!!!!!

Side windows have been tinted while off the car, but the rear window just has too many curves...  I just can\'t get the bubbles out... *sigh*
