        Started tearing down the interior and poking around with a screwdriver :D found the last bit of cancer on this shock tower. Will finish it up tomorrow.
        Also tried grinding down the welds, but the sparks form a freaking tornado of fire in the boot by bouncing off of all the surfaces, not even the protective glasses help, so need to figure out a better outfit (preferably with a big hoodie) and get some sort of a mask.

          Yay. Finally finished with the arches. Need to get everything epoxy primered in the rear and move on to floorboards. Getting excited :D

              Thanks, man. Yeah, it's like rust repair>sanding on the PITA scale, lol. Posting progress/receiving feedback sure helps with the motivation though.

                I hear ya on that. I was ready to give up when I found out my car didn't have a floor since I had already been dealin with other rust. Every one told me to keep going so that's what I did.

                  Dragged this home in the boot today. m20b25 from e34.
                  Got it for cheap (~100eur). After i sell the gearbox, alternator, starter, ps pump, sump and get my old engine to the scrapyard i should get pretty much all the money back :D so probably will do a bit of rebuilding.
