Should look mighty fine when youve finished it nick :y Should look like your engine bay then :y

What you want to do after you have done that is give it a clay treatment then polish up. You will have to post some pics when finished.

You've got to wash them as well as driving them, I thought the dirt kept the rust away or does it just stop you seeing it. I like the idea of a 500 watt spot light to dry it with though is it easier than a chamois? ;D
