I just showed the pics to my other half as he has been buying and restoring old cars since he qualified as a motor mechanic many years ago. He said 'I could do that', I'm just glad he's never brought one home that bad to our house as I don't think I could handle it :D
These are pics of a 1961 MG Midget he restored a few years ago showing it can be done!
This looks fabulous!

:):):):) nothing will put me off, I have very little skin in the game, probably a lot of frustration & skinned knuckles, once I waste it, one of this lot can come and pick it up!
I am well jealous of having a big garage to work in the dry ! These pics shows before and after.

Won't let me post the video, I think the computer thinks my car is too ugly! Big brother is watching me :-(
turn off the ugly filter.

just seen the pdf, doesnt look too bad at all. bar the rear arches.
Look for repair panels to weld in new metal.

A mobile car veleter will have the inside looking as good as new.

As for the rest, time to get stuck in and see whats what. pop bonnet, check fluid levels, check for signs of leaks and start her up
