The parts have literally come from far and wide, I could probably tick off a majority of Europe. Germany has been the supplier of the bulk.

Nope it hasn't been sprayed. Nothing but cleaning for the subframe. It was actually in pretty good condition under the road grime

It is tricky, I've managed to get it cleaned to a good enough standard for now. When I get round to whipping the engine out to respray the engine bay I'll finish the job :-)
Autosmart Tardis, toothbrush selection and the baby wipes have now finished their job on this part of the car.

I grabbed a whole box from the shelf at Asda last time, a few times I've been asked;
Cashier: ahh bless, have you got a bit of a messy one?
Me: Sadly yes, it's a 25 year old called Peugeot...
The look of confusion.... Priceless

Havn't had a great deal of time on this over the last few weeks again. I have however been gathering more parts, the front suspension will effectively be fully rebuilt.
One result I have had is that I was about to buy some new hubs, largely for the sake of it but I had a few hours spare and was curious about how well I could clean up the 25 year old originals, turns out with some determination they can be returned to pretty good condition
