Old Fords are made of the same stuff as alka-seltzers, put them near water & they fizz & disolve.

Nah, i beg to differ there..... old fords are made of extra long life heavy duty DI engines and the rest is Cheese......... pretty sure the sills are made of mature french Brie, with Camembert crossmembers.....

i know how you feel, i took my beast to the old m.o.t place and failed on welding again. the fella who welds my van for me says it might not be worth welding next year , so i'm going to take it off the road in sping and completly strip her and try to rebuild her and then hopfuly the cost will not be so painfull and more worthy and a nicer van .
