Corrosion all the way through to the driver's side insulation. And a hole you could put your hand through. Passenger side not too bad luckily.

View up into o/s wheel arch:

Not the only one mate. Got to replace the head on mine, but also rather foolishly promised my wife that I'd build the stable/garage before her birthday (17th October) seeing as I'll be heading down south on that day. Mind you I didn't specify which year!
Still, got the base done, and laid the first course of bricks so at least I've made a start...
