Well, so far it has behaved quite well i'd say. Soon the whole process will begin and i will make a complete mess out of it, but it's all worth it haha

So many tiny rusty holes! It looks so similar to my first AE86 when I discovered the bogged up footwell!
Isn't cutting with a grinder dangerous with kids around? (and is that your son? )
Also, I have a colleague at my new job who likes old Volvos. He's dailying a 780 and he recently purchased a 242GT to be restored. He's not that good with doing these jobs himself, so he lets others (ex-Daf/Volvo employees) tinker on them.

Yeah, it's mad how much stuff is there.

I am getting all the little holes plugged and so on so i have a fresh piece of metal to work with.

My son is ok there. If i ever cut anything when any of them around i make sure they are far away and wear ear protection and glasses.

Show the chap with the 780 this!!

I want to speak to HIM!
