Sill inspection

 Got the old tar undercoat cleaned off from the passenger side sill area and inside the fender arches. Most of it was knocked off using a pneumatic needle scaler. Then the residue was cleaned with mineral spirit and a SS pot scrubber.

Since the sills are a typical problem for rust on MGBs, I was relieved to see that there was none here.

 
 
The front  leaf spring brackets are another trouble spot for rust. All good here.
