Found loads of rust today, and started replacing the scuttle - the old one was left unpainted on the rear, and although its only a couple of years old, has badly rusted! changing it all, also added a bulkhead box. im using a skunk2 manifold, but a little more space wont hurt!

That just goes to whow that no matter how mint the paint on a Mini is, it still can be junk. As lots of us has found out... On 13th Jul, 2012 Ben H said:

yep :( just shows how important it is to paint or waxoyl the rear of unpainted panels too. these panels are just bare on the rear, when i weld on the scuttle corner underneath pieces, im going to drill a hole and fill them with waxoyl.
