Your welcome. My comment was T-I-C. And, as a relative newbie myself, I found that reading the FAQ's is very helpful and I was just offering that insight to SHED - you'll find most here are welcoming, helpful and honest.
As for ferrous oxide I am an expert

he/she / or it was obviously confused with how to navigate around the site!!!!!!
we dont need any of the negative comments FROM ANYBODY

Which 'one line' comment in this thread have you found negative?

-Oh, you've answered it above - I type slowly

S aitch I T - sorry I mean SNAP!!!!
my floor is like that, fortunately not structural bits ( yet )
except if you count where the back seat belt connects to the wheel arch.
I knew it was going to be a bit of a project, but with arthritis effecting the sex life - I needed to do something.
I took it to a government run W.O.F. / M.O.T testing station as a pre purchase check - and they didnt even pick it up!!!!!, maybe the floor rust wasnt in their worry basket - - but you can move the seat anchor about 50mm carpet and all - - they were more worried about my headlights being set too LOW!!!
Good Luck mayt - - with yours,
p.s. how do yu get rust in Auz???? - its hot and dry over there isnt it ???

Mostly dry although I think mine sat out in the weather for about 40 years

Hey Katena, Now that we've broken the ferrous oxide - I mean "ice" - Let's move off SHED's thread - why don't you start a thread in the introductions area and tell us all about yourself and your vehicle(?) - I take it you are OS, UK? SA? US?
Wots yr story???

ok i may do a cut and paste from l/r pongolia.
I now back in Auckland, NZ, not usually known for too much rust , especially South Island. - I have a HOLDEN Jackeroo, bought from the OTAGO region, with small 18oo cc, RODEO engine, 4wd, hi /lo , good for fishing rivers, a few tree stump dings, NO RUST, cheap to run and MAINTAIN. - i have bought and sold that vehicle twice over 5 years - cos i know its a goodie. sold it with a slipping clutch, bought it back cheaper 2 years , and 2 tourist groups later, with the clutch replaced, I wasnt in the mood for dirtying my fingernails at the time.
bought a 89 vogue , about 2 weeks ago, evrything good except the mild steel bits and the engine....( yip it was import from UK )- just for fun and tootling round the forsests and dunes, - - to much of a guzzler to use as everyday car - but it still needs to be road legal .
past my bedtime here, will add info to intro's maybe tomorrow.
got to go or my cpap machine will think i dont love her anymore.

i am a newbee too mayt , its all fairly intuitive, just click on bits and buttons and see what happens, - just dont play with the smilies yet - - they bite newbees, I know - I only joined this group a few minutes ago, and they are still sniffing my hand

ok miss read this post, (easily done though as it doesn't suggest another site)

then i read this one which was straight after

ps, IGNORE the smart arses with the one line responses, they cant think of anything constructive to say !!!
of course they know it all - - except how daunting these sites are - if you havent been shown around one before.
Maybe one of them will be able to help you with a specific answer to a specific question - just dont ask anything too technical, you may get bad advice from a jerk - - so dont ask things like "whats the pcd for a RR 89 wheel stud?" - - - most of them wont know what a pcd is.

when i read the first and then the second i wrongly assumed you were talking about this site as you had only just joined it.....easy mistake to make i think

i have read loan rangie's post and now i see you were talking about another site......but who was to know
