Restoration Has Started

Today work started in earnest on my little green machine the rear tub came off with no were the swearing and cursing that I expected, next the seat bench back to the fire wall then I have the wounderfull job of removing the many degrees of surface rust, old crud etc I am sure you all know only too well what I am talking about.
If any one is handy with a welder and could spare an hour or two I would greatly appreciate some assistance I have a stick welder That I can use and a mig but no experence and very little knowledge of how ( The Mig ) to use it correctly .
The laugh of the day had to be my 15 year old grandson underneath on the other spanner He can not understand why any body would want to stuff about with an old car, When I told him that Kings and queens have used Landrovers since have been around he just gave me a big vacant stare them burst out laughing, them I told him they have been used all around the world in many wars and military conflicks , his reply " well how come you dont see them in war movies and computer games
Oh well tomorrow is another day .
