I hope te learn how to weld in the near future, so I can have a go myself

Onne, a word of encouragement, welding is not that difficult. Many people think it is but its just a matter of having the right gear, a bit of instruction and lots of practice.
I'm sure Jonothan will be able to help with the instruction! ;-)
After you'[ve mastered the welding and fitting of panels, I'd like to see you paint Victoria yourself! (ditto the welding)

But of course! I just need to take my time, and most of all enjoy it.

Progress update
Bumper trial fitted. Need to find some nuts for it (Series MM ones don't seem to fit
)
To do:
Wire up headlights.
Wire up sidelights.
Wire up indicator blobs of plastic horror.
Fix horn
See why my washer bottle pump isn't pumping
Fix door glass holder upper thing
Easy!

Sounds like WAY too much to me. You'd better find somebody to give her to...

I never said that - just that I prefer pick-ups... Not as much as I'd prefer to have one on the road, mind *sigh*

Both!
I do have to change my timing cover front seal though. Another job that is fairly doable.

Cheers Matt.
Still need to put the kickplates back on, and the finishers, glass still won't go up, and the dynamo doesn't charge.
And give the car a jolly good polish
