well it cant just sit there anymore

well it cant just sit there anymore so i wheeled her out onto the gravel and sprayed two cans of degrease on the engine bay and under side.. couldn't touch anything without getting grease and shit everywhere.
hosed it all down with high pressure spray and it came up really nice to my surprise then blew it down with air compressor, don't want the rust to grow any more than it is..
parts order for the patch panels is going in next week from UK so i am starting with the driver side door first to see if i need a new door skin or not.
tried to start her but the rotor in the distributor was damaged due to i think the cap being warped but it cranks over just fine and am looking forward to taking her up and down the street for a whizz. try finding one of those rotors at your local???even went to local alfa parts guy and he didn't carry them so added to the order from UK..
hacked off all the bad filler and all the rust bubbles to see were i am going but there is alot!!!! i mean alot all over this car...not much metal with just paint on it. so i think i will just keep to the lines created and just repair what is needed...well see???
