unfortunately browno when dealing with cars that you just don't see rust is something you have to deal with
mine's pretty rusty aswell, but things like when you talk to an older guy would have been in his sixtys and he's been into austins all his life and his dad was into austins and he said he'de never seen a van but he had 2 two door austins, you start to think you have something pretty rare, i've seen pics of 4 other vans in australia and none were the same as mine
i have seen a van like yors strangely enough it was at the same place i got mine (different year though) orange swap meet
it won't be going anywhere harko, i've talked about getting rid of it and the missus
is the one that said i don't care if nothing else gets done to it, it's staying right where it is
