John,
I made a 'homemade auto rotisserie' for my TR3A and will be informing the list
when I post digital pics of this.  I have decided to not seperate the tub from
the chassis since I can turn the car upside down and access everything.
Although I know you have a TR4 and 'ymmv', however, on my tub it is quite
evident that practically the only rust that exists on my car can be seen when
th tub is upside down, that portion of the tub near the gas tank and on the
sides, almost touching the ground is rusty.  Of course, it can be seen when
the car is also right side up.
        Now, a question for you:  do you think the bedliner applied under the
tub and/or chassis is better than rust-preventative paint?

Thanks, Paul Dorsey
60 TR3A
