Crayford is suffering from a bad case of the dreaded rust!!

My old brain gets the shakes just thinking how much work would be involved in restoring this car. Reminds me of a 450SLC that used to live in the Bondi Beach area - the amount of rust work that Parks rectified took weeks. Cutting out metal all around the bottom of the rear screen, in the roof, etc. - it seemed to be never ending. Regards Styria

Having stored a Crayford for OBH in the past, I can vouch that not only rust is a problem , but the fibreglass and plastic filler used to 'bond' the Crayford roof to the body is also excessive.

Anything is possible. But you have to work on a value to spend ratio and be careful when it becomes to much spend for not enough value!
