Have fun. It's very satisfying to bring an old and maybe broken car back to life.

The "yearly rebuild" I know it well

So tidy!

I did this t my EBay Hornet and wished I’d documented it for the forum. I guess I figured anyone who needs to a hornet torn down already though. 
manta ray looks like a fun restoration.

That is definitely the best way to learn, and honestly, it's all that 3/4 of the vintage cars I've bought have needed. Just clean 'em up, re-set 'em back to the start. Feels good to see it all cleaned up, too.
