Replacement engines for Bristol 6
Philippa -
I saw several examples of "the horrors" at two shops in NZ and have
photos. How about expansion foam shot between the support beams and
roof of a old panel truck being stripped to bare steel? Because the
foam was orange, not hard to spot! Also much bondo.
Other - every bit of steel on a '70s Corvette was rusty under the new
paint, stripped off, of a car bought as "fully restored".

Every good restorer I have spoken to has horror stories about what they have
found on what appear on the surface to be good cars.
Funny how these horror stories are usually about their rivals though - or am
I just being cynical???
