It was fully undersealed but I've scrubbed it off. Still got quite a bit to do. Took me 2 hours to just remove it under the boot area. Oh, and it gets a polishing under there every now and then.

Ouch! Thats a lot of work...but I think worth it

Dont say that! I started to clean the inside of my wheel arches the other day

Loads of dirt, but what do you expect for a 102,000 mile car:

No finished pictures yet...still a work in progress...

I know what you mean

Ive got the day off today waiting for the wasp/pest people so I think im gonna get out there soon. What next...

Its quite sad, but I remember following a Classic years and years ago when I had just learnt to drive and the thing I remembered was the rear diff shinning back at me.....now I just have to get out there and start polishing mine...

You havent got a larger picture of this one that I could get do you?
