Steve,

You are correct... I know you didn't need me to tell you this, but I
realised it after reading your 'article'... lol The car has been
sitting for nearly 30 years already, so i definitely shouldn't expect
it to be a fast restoration.

I just need to get it going well enough (and safely enough) to ride
around my 87 year old grand-dad ... he's really looking forward to
riding in it again..
