Spent some time doing one of the back wheels, I only had a brush, so it was taking ages. Tomorrow I'm going to get a drill attachment. | |

Or they can go on the rear beam, the rear chassis legs, on a block of wood that goes accross the floor... The list in endless... | |

the jacking points are just in front of the rear wheels and just behinf the front ones. If you look on the chassis you'll see a couple of lil notches (one at each end). they are about the region you wanna be in. | |

I was going to use a wire brush, but I don't have one. Wont sanding have the same effect? I know it will require more effort, but it does the same thing, does it not? | |

I'm bored, and there covered in rust. Will it be ok to sand them down? There not going to crumble into hundreds of different pieces are they :P |
