    I made it back to the trailer but the rock garden just below that pic of yours, cost me a bit knocking some rather large dents out.😆

    Got bored after work so I cleaned, degreased, kill-rusted, and repainted the inside of the rear wheel arches with rattle-can rubberised underbody liner. Hopefully reduces road noise a bit and keeps the rust away for a while

    Is fish oil good or a waste of time? Sprayed a rattlecan of it all over my wheel wells and chassis, makes the chassis look nice and black haha and water seems to be beading off nicely

    Sent it for a service and two of the guys asked me who did I use for the new under seal job
    Secret is no flaky bits. Apply heaps over a period of time not all at once. Do the anti rust and leave it for a week before under seal.

    But don't go in the river that week !!

    Flood it but slowly !!!

    Chuck a big block g16 under the hood. Although I have a mate with a 1800cc Nissan serena diesel turbo in his one.

    Park it in the river mouth it should be good burly to attract Kahawai.

    I put that fish oil stuff on the deck of my xr6 before I put a tuff deck thing on it.
    I sold it 9 mths later, not a spec of rust on it that I could see.
