![]() I spotted bubbling and pinpoint water seepage through the bubbles. Jacking point rubber is coated in rust. I've been here before around 7 years back, so it's a little disappointing especially as I treated the area with waxoyl after some welding work. I'm at the meet in Lincolnshire on the 2nd - I will be looking for guidance from any experts. Looking forward to the event - it looks like it is well subscribed!

![]() My offside rear sill died , so I bought the repair panel from Tom Hobbs on ebay and then had the job carried out by a local classic car body outfit . They also did some extra welding on the jacking point , which they felt was advisable , altogether £250 .
Very pleased indeed with both the team and the job ![]()
