Bit of work underneath :D

What's left of the rear cross member :shock:

Chopped back to solid metal, chassis legs are solid, but the spring hangers need a bit of work :?

The rest of underneath is pretty good bar maybe a couple of patches needed on the n/s sill :D

Poem:

What is this beneath my van
Paint not flat by feel of hand
Tis it tinworm thinks my mind
In the crevices behind
Shall I leave or shall I mend
Taking money less to spend
Lets just hope it's in the paint
Nought to worry making feint
Just to prod the paintwork shall
Making sure my faithful pal
Is quite sound and full of life
Keeping me away from strife
Pressing gently feels quite sound
Slightly crackling noise abound
Bloody hell it's gone right in
Finger lost up to the ring
Now what am I sure to do
Should of left the silly moo
Piggin thing I hate it now
Worried face and wrinkled brow
Gone indoors to have a brew
Take my note fill holes with glue :lol:
Happy Easter
