If you are not mechanically minded and learning as you are going along I think you'll need to revise your time estimate. Will your shed be big enough for you to get the Landy in, so you can work on it in all weathers?

Sorry, that rings a bell. I think you've said that in an earlier post

I would be giving the engine a check over before I tried to start it and I wouldn't run it for long.
