mt latest project car isn't rusted out, it just spent 5 years with no doors on it... the rust on the inside of the firewall is just surface rust - I should have killrusted it before I put it together

only really bed area of rust is the spare tyre well... it doesn't exist any more

apart fro that it's all good! andthe really rusted out car (the sunny) isn't going to be a problem anymore, as it no longer runs...

anyway, back on topic - the struts in it are off my March '77 120Y (The Defect)

I was going to use the struts and calipers form the stocky struts - but the seal and rubber bits were perished and I didn't know what they were - they DID clear my 200BSX alloys thouh!

I will be using the struts from the stocky struts though as I think the shockes on them work as the coils have been cut (the coils are going too - different diamater coils fleft and right)

those struts hissed when I pushed them unto the wheelarch so I'm hoping they are good...

not wanting to spend $250 on monroe inserts

I still have the ORIGINAL struts out of the Defect III (current project) as the shockies still work on them) as it's only done 130,125 kays they are stil filled with oil!

but they are early model struts as TD3 is a July '74 120Y

have to see what Pheghm (so called because it's that gross green colour that 120Y's were painted) has under the front of it...

that's another 120Y I have to retreive...
