Default little update

Due to the noise and space to work on the car I had to get all the floors inside and underneath blasted which saved shit loadsa time and very happy with the out come, with me thinking there would be rust holes everywhere! But no! about 4 little holes the size of a penny piece just under the rear bumper line on each side.
Time to repair that and get some new outer seals on as the ones on the car were cut to bolt the old cage in so another big job of the list

Is this a Cossie shell or base model?

I was just thinking (you probably already aware) if it's a base model you might have tunnel issues?
