Frankie-Boy:

Well got the old girl back now for a while, back end all new now like when it came out of the factory, thanks Mick for doing such a great job for me.  :clap: :)

That's the first part done, she'll be going back in in February for the front to get its refurb, starting with the inner wings and who knows what else by then, ah well its only money.  ;)

No doubt the photo's will keep coming when Mick starts the next part of the renovation saga....... keep watching.  :) ;)

dread to think what the final bill will be, but if you plan to keep it, i can see its worth doing! keep it clean, keep it covered, and it may well be a classic car before long! (most discos go this way, and most owners would take sooner buy a slightly less rotton model, than pay for the reair!)

--- End quote ---

its about being able to retain the vehicle you know and want to keep.  FrankieBoy has had this motor for a while and knows it inside out - he now, unlike many other disco owners knows that his (after this is finished!) is rust free and he wont have to worry about it.

Give it another 10 yrs time and this will be a classic and it will all be worth it.

Frankie-Boy:
I sincerely hope you're right Dave.  :)

More to the point though is that I now know my grandkids are safe in the back now that the seat belt anchors are actually attached to something metallic.
