Default Getting Nervous

Having read and seen pictures of the rot in front cross members/wings/sills, I am getting really nervous

I can't weld so would be stumped if that type of work is needed. Fingers crossed that the £500 Y plate Terrano goes through the MOT. It has been standing for the best part of a year. On the up side, I'm not paying for the MOT or the motor if it crashes and burns...

Yeah I did a thorough wash underneath, let it dry in warm weather for about a week, then applied a good amount of hammerite and underseal to arches and sills and more, rear diff ect

Well worth it

Prevention is better than cure, oh, I did wire wool brush off any rust first though.

Do you have to get all the rust off, or can you blast it over it?
