Congrats, Bert.  That's a huge milestone.  Looks like a first-rate
restoration.

Dear listers,

After 8.5 years my 56 BN2 came alive again yesterday.  I bought the car with a
rebuild engine (somewhere in the 80's) but a stalled restoration.  After
moving around 2 times here in California just after a relocation from Belgium
I started a full nut and bolt, body, frame on rotisserie style restoration 6
years ago.  Since I am doing not all but a lot of the work myself it's a slow
but fun learning process.  The amount of time I spend in books or workshop
manuals is surpassed by sifting through the archives both here and over at the
british car forum.  I probably spend more time studying than executing.
