Shows how apparently "restored" cars can be a total heap of poop and
weird ideas.
How can that much rust not see a torch? Even some bird poop gas weld on
a bit of old road sign would have been stronger than pop rivetted copper

Shame his workshop burned down taking three local businesses with it.
Don't know if he has moved and setup else where or given up.

compressor, or the spraying gear for when he was doing proper rather
