    I just go green with envy, yet admiration when I watch your videos. I have wanted to own either an XA/B or C since I was a kid. Before Mad Max. At the times when I could afford one, life got in the way. Now I'll just admire the hard work of blokes like you. Cheers.

    Good to see you are saving another one. Wish I had the skills and patience to do the same. Hats off to you

    That's a crusty coupe, but surprisingly straight, well what's left of it. Can't wait to see you getting stuck into it!

      I dont mind the rust work, its the panels that are painful. If there damaged its a shit ton of labor to get them right again 😁

    I might do a video on the weekend on this XA. Me and my brother want to inspect the severity of the rust, and also what parts we find.

      Interesting to see how far back that rust goes into the roof from the channels

    Lovely unit, wish I could have snagged one back when they were under 5k. Had to settle on a wagon for my price range Lol.

    that coupe has had the drivers side rear quarter replaced at some point. big job but plenty doable just brace the hell out of when you start cutting.

    • @jason35177

      You have a sharp eye for detail! Thats what my bro reckons too. I didn't pickup on it. She has some bog there too 😬

    • @banarcus
      @banarcus Рік тому +1

      Yep, that's right Graham. Whoever did the repair used bog on untreated steel hence the rust that started on the C pillar.

    Those coastal cars cop it badly with cancer, but its what u gotta do to save a quid, as apposed to spending more on an inland barn find.

    What a rust.🙄😬🤫🤔 Rust is like a iceberg. 1/8 above the rest below. The wiper plenum will be a mess. What is the dodgy hole on drivers side bonnet ???

    • @jason35177
      @jason35177  Рік тому

      I think someone has needed a piece of steel for repairing something else lol. This car did sell for $1000 many years ago lol
