Hi all, This is one of the jobs I've got this summer, so I'm open to suggestions on best cure/solution. My current thinking is plastic/masking tape around affected area, gently sand to cleanup and remove debris, use that rust-converter stuff (HAMMERITE KURUST 90ML - Rust Treatment /Killer) to convert/revert it to something solid, give it an undercoat/protector (CarPlan Tetroseal Underbody Underseal Sealant?) and then paint over the top (rattle cans?) Anyone any comments on the above plan, or can tell me I'm talking rubbish and tell me the best solution!

I have a burgundy Voyager LE 3.3 automatic petrol that has had an LPG conversion fitted. I has been written off by insurance after being shunted from behind on the tow bar while parked by a parked car that was hit by another car traveling down the road. I have driven it a short distance to get it off the road and personally didn't notice anything wrong with it, but was advised by the insurance assesor not to drive it in case anything broke while driving it. They carried out an on street visual inspection and said that the steering had been damaged from impact with the kerb, but not actaully broken. The insurance process has took a while and the car is SORN and off the road, it is now mine to do as I wish. As it took a while for the insurance companies to make up their minds I have since purchased a new car and would now like to sell my voyager on. I could sell this for scrap, but as it has had a LPG conversion and the only thing wrong with it might be the steering, which might be repairable by someone with the time and knowledge it seemed a shame to condemn it to the scrap yard. It's W REG (200), automatic, burgundy, 103000+ miles. If you are interested and would like more information, please let me know Steve
