Not by me. I’m not sure they worried too much about rust when she was turned into Norwegian Coke cans.
Rust was never an issue, ok the odd lecture from the MOT chap but it was the same year after year so I just nodded and said I’d get the odd bit sorted. Rust is way down the order of things that will trash these cars, the engine going bang did that for mine well before I’d have been needing work done on the chassis.

No disrespect, it must take a lot of work and money, but I’d be surprised if there was a calendar this year.
