Thanks for the advice everyone.
The pictures must be making it look better than it is. Both front panels under where the bonnet fits are shot and need replacing. I'm hoping the front bulkhead will be ok as it is as long as it's not too thin.
Rear of that it's not too bad. There are some holes in the inner wings and a couple in the floor pan that will need patching.
That woodwork looks good. I presume you make the plywood panels for the door cards, rear quarter panels, seat back etc?
My structural stuff has a bit of woodworm here and there but doesn't look too bad. All the ply sheets are totally shot. They pretty much disintegrate when you handle them.
Got the last of the old nails and air vents out tonight. Just trying to figure the mystery of steering wheel removal. I've got the control levers and tubes out, just need to know how to release the tube that has the control plate on the top??
