I am certainly not new to British cars, having restored a Bugeye,TR3 and MGB but my current project is a 1960 Chevrolet Corvair. I'm also negotiating some Minis from back in the days where Leyland had them produced in Chile. With a little luck soon I'm be asking very specific questions about them, although I've already gotten the repair manuals on CD.
In the process of restoring the Corvair, I've written up procedures on straightening and polishing stainless steel and aluminum trim. Here is the link if you want to download it.
Polishing Car Trim
here is a little of what you can do





Here is the link to my site with all my work to date

There are also pictures posted on the site of my Sprite, TR3, and MGB.
