I've poked ...

[Mk2Jo]

... a hole in the rust in my rear valance I couldn't just leave it could I It was bubbling up and I had hoped to get it sorted over the winter as it's bad now but I poked it with my keys and now there's an ugly big hole there so for anyone who sees the car during the summer, my apologies for the state of it

[MightySprocket]

[Stu_B]

To be honest the whole back panel under the bumper including both wheel wells needs replacing

is this the next one to come out nxt year looking like a fully blown caged up stage car then ????

[Mk2Jo]

Thanks Sprocket but Phil (overhead cam) has very kindly offered to sort it for me but he is a busy man and I am on a waiting list I just wish I had left it as a rust bubble now and not poked at it

 

Chris ... No it will not be a fully fledged racer .... I need to keep it as my family vehicle (sort of ).

[MightySprocket]

cool

[FredTransit]

NEVER poke at rust, unless you are on your way to the paint shop Sounds like it's time to get the gaffer tape out........

[Mr Sam]

come on..........yesterdays newspaper and a pot of filler what you waiting for

 

 

when i took my fiesta for its last MOT i was poking around the wing and found some newspaper stuffed inside it from last year , no filler going near the anglia though now i can weld

I thought this was going to be a thread about Retards Club

[Vista]

Think yourself lucky Jo, last time I poked something in a hole I wasn't sure of I got the clap!! I needed an embarrassing visit to the Dick Dr whereas you'll get away with some discretely placed masking tape till winter
