I hope that you will keep us posted on the progress of this restoration. I for one am very interested in the outcome.

By all means go ahead Cliff.
I don't know if resolution is good enough for you. If you wish I can supply you with the original Tiff's (1.5mb each).

I will do the follow-up. But be patient, a typical restauration takes about 2 years. We all are volunteers so all work is done in our spare time (most of us only sunday's) and we work on several vehicles at the same time and do maintenance on the ones that run.
We first focus to get the things safely running (engine tuning, brakes, no leaks, cooling...) then we clean them up.
Now don't quote me on the 2 years. The Staghound I am helping on already takes 5 years and only this year did it make it's first ride (and wrecked a transmission ).
