Here's a few pics of the #36 just before media blasting
    After blasting a lot more rust was revealedI'll continue putting pics up over the coming weeks,thought i'd do it once she's nearly complete then you get to see the whole story in a shorter space of time,by the way shes called the #36 as that is the number we chose to put on her when complete ,hope you enjoy |

After coming back from media blasting there was quite a bit more rust than I'd hope for but not as bad as it could have been
    The battery tray and hell hole where in quite bad condition  The jacking point was in quite bad condition but the longs weren't in that bad a state   |
