This Rust (redrot) lurked behind the rivetted "French restoration" metal as shown in photo two below (note the rivet holes of the metal that was covering up the rusted metal on the car). I owned the car when unbeknownst to me the french restoration was painted over. On the 2nd paint job it was discovered.
Tip: Make sure you visit the shop regularly and take good photographs of the progress of your classic car restoration.

After two expensive attempts at restoring classic cars-- my first was an ill advised Triumph TR6 with structural issues & the second an overly expensive restoration of a 1962 MGB-- I have once again dove into a restoration project.

Well it’s day 2 of the Autumn rain. That means two days that water has run between my windshield and my front bonnet then streamed onto my left pant leg.
My floor carpet is wet from the day before. I added more water to the floor pan pond.
This is normal for MG’s and most of older British convertibles. I seem to remember some trickles in my BMW 2002 tii. But British roadsters are definitely not waterproof.
Compound that issue with my windshield wiper stopped working last night.
