West Midlands Rolling Road Day Feeler...?
Swompy replied to Jim's topic in Event Announcements & Discussion
I will probably come along to this but not sure if I will put it on the rollers as on the 29/10/11 Im taking the rado to a RR day with my mate and the TT owners club -
I done it on my valver before selling it and it added up to the best part of £2500 and that didnt include things I've bought off the forum The VR is probably going to mash that in one job :afro:

Before I sent my car for its new engine I striped out the interior and saw a couple of bit of rust in the floor where some pipes go from inside the car to the outside. I can easily tackle it from the inside but what about the outside? I was thinking of stripping off all the underseal tackling any rust I find then coating the underneath with some rust prevention paint then maybe some durable paint like hammerite or something els. Then a good coating of underseal. Whats the best way to remove the underseal with out causing too much damage to the under side? And whats a good underseal to use and would coating the under side with something like Hammerite be a good idea as well? Thanks you.
