I'm lucky about the rust, somewhat, the America I bought was undercoated, but there is still rust where the jack holes are. My big problem is fixing all the mechanicals, most cost little but there a quite a few...

You used to be able to fix these A series engines yourself when they went wrong and they did now and again but you just set the points with a matchbox cleaned the plugs and you were away again till the subframe went oh happy days.

Messing about with oily engines is best done on a cold night in the rain.
