Sadly I rent from the department of housing and a lock up garage isn't possible. It's not a job which can be done in the yard. The key to the little Healey's and MG Midgets is to secure the chassis rail on two straight, level solid beams, whether timber or stell before cutting into the body. Many a restored Healey and Midget have uneven door gaps where sills have been cut and welded while the car sat on it's wheels, or up on stands. The bodies basically fold.
Panels I can make such as floor and boot pans. Bolts I can purchase all of the required items from a place in Melbourne (or SA, I can't remember but I know there name, it's somewhere.
I'd like to drop the little Peugot engine in, it's lighter and puts out a lot more power. Those iron 1049CC engines weigh a ton.
Theoretically when I purchased the car everything was complete, though completely stripped.
