        Soooo much respect taking on a big project like that in Iceland.

        I get pissed off waiting for Parts in Northern Ontario, couldn't imagine how much of a pain in the ass it would be there.

        I want to go to Iceland soooo fucking bad it's not even funny.

        Good luck with the build, looks like a solid start.

            Rust repair threads are the best. I had to replace the firewall and floor pans on the driver side and passenger sides of my car. I wish I had known more about body work before attempting it though.
