This is what's left of my old Monaro. The car that started my Pistonheads career. The car that got me organising days out for this forum all them years ago is a shell of its former self.

The strip down pic of your Ro makes a lot of sense because of the little bits of rust showing up on my own car now.

Bottom driver door hinge and the weeper near the top of the driver door kick plate. Even the way the anti noise fabric in the back has sagged.
My rear seats are out just now to get fixed but the leather is tough as old boots I’ve been moisturising since feb and it’s getting there but still not ready for re-stitching.
