Finally, something other than bodywork. You’re sick of reading about it, I’m sick of doing and writing about it. In a change of scenery, I moved to the front suspension to sort out an issue this Marina had.

Winter sucks. Not only is it cold and dark, but it also makes working in the garage a somewhat unappealing prospect. That, and having other projects on the go, caused a bit of a slowdown with the Marina.
Having run out of MIG gas, which then nuked my momentum and motivation on the bodywork repairs, I decided to change path, and do something I actually enjoy; mechanical and electrical work.
At times it feels like I’m playing Whack-A-Mole with the rust, but I am steadily knocking rust on the head and putting new steel in.
Wow, it’s almost been a year since Part 1, this project really has been on the back burner.
Oh hello again, it’s been a while. No one likes sagging, so let’s fix it.
Just a quick update to show where I’m at with the Marina.
The time has finally come. I couldn’t put it off anymore. I needed to cut out the rust.
In a couple of weeks, I would have owned the Marina for a year. That’s a reasonably long time for me to own a car, so I needed something to mark that milestone.
Wrapping up the suspension meant I could move onto another small job I needed to attend to; Flushing the cooling system.
