I recogognise that sight, it was the only bit of rust on the whole shell for me and boy was it rusted through in places. I cut the whole lot out, treated, primered and painted the stumps...

Had a go at trying to sort this after work tonight, not really enough daylight but I was able to remove most of the pipe. You wouldnt of thought it was too bad to look at but here some pics. I know theres quite a bit that fell down that I need to remove. I'm gonna go out and have a go at that now and hopefully get the rest by tomorrow. Heres some pics.
Not really sure what to treat the ends with or what to do with the specs of rust that have built up on the inner wing.

That Vactan looks real handy stuff Lance; especially at that price. Do you reckon it would do as a primer on the old girls arse (maybe even on the G's).
