Any updates mate??????
Been a while
It is great to see someone being so completely thorough. That's dedication to detail that is not often seen. How did you deal with the rust inside the chassis rails and cross beams? I water blasted the inside as much as I could then sprayed the living daylights out of it with Fishoilene which is a great tried and true rust inhibitor. Its good for all hard to get to areas although I don't know if it is available in France.
Look forward to following your progress so the more pictures the merrier.
The end result should be amazing.

Once the purchase is made the way back was good, it was loaded on a carrier car.
I'll try to tell the story of this renovation in stages, taking pictures, I would have probably have questions, you can also have too, so we can share our passion, please.
