I'd love one of those car hoists, rather than crawling underneath to spray waxoyl on!

Whats anchor wax?

Ankor wax is a kind of rust preventer made by Morris lubricants, the vw crowd use it on the rat -rust look i think . It's apparently developed for farm machinery etc, i picked up a 5 lit tub for about 25 and have sprayed it in the vulnerable sections on my azu van , i did have to thin it though as i did it last winter. I don't suppose it's that different to waxoyl tbh.

Very nice - 2cvgb has just 'invested' £28,000.00 into getting tooling and stock to do Dyane inner wings.....

So as it was already rotten the old front wheel tub went west along with the bump stop mounts so the new tyres would fit, cut and then shaped for the 165....

A couple of photographs of the original panels, which are being used to ensure that the copies will be as close as possible to how Citroen made them... ;)
