I am tempted by a P6, the twin carb 4 cylinder ones take my fancy and there are few around at a tempting price.
However I owned a Triumph Dolomite or more accurately a kit to make a Triumph Dolomite when I have fixed all the problems with it. Including the dread tinworm. Put it this way, before I bought that car I couldn't weld, now I am fairly competent with a mig welder.
Which brings me to my question. How easy is it to repair the structural part of a P6? In theory it sounds easier than a conventional car. Unbolt the bodywork and weld up what is underneath. Welding for strength and not having to worry about getting an invisible weld, like you do with a conventional monocoque.
However my guess is, in reality, it aint that simple. So how easy is it to fix a rotten P6?
