Removed rear offside wheel and power washed wheelarch. What I thought was caked on mud around the fuel pipes and cover was a type of underseal. When dry I wire brushed the metal and applied rust converter to leave overnight. Pleasantly surprised by how good the body metalwork is. Can't say the same for the suspension bits but at least they are easily replaceable.
Spring looks almost new and upper suspension arm nowhere near as bad as Marinabrians and may just need blasting or soaking and repainting after removal.
