June 2003 

So, stuff you will need to get for your 100E restoration. These are sometime very hard to get hold of, as they are 50 years old! - I will list the specialist stuff separately - its worth noting this web site though - http://www.smallfordspares.com 

Get as many books on the car as you can. I must have about a dozen books now, and each of them tell me something new about Daisy!!
If you plan to respray your car, its worth noting the the badges will probably die when you try and remove them (they are 50years old after all!), get original badges if you can, they don't cost much second hand.

I have listed this book separately, as it is rare as hell!! - I have the workshop manual (very good book) But this is the gem. All about the 100E in the friendly Haynes format. Get it if you can, but VERY rare and expensive too!
Some to store all the 'bits' for the project in hand. I am working on the suspension and the installation of the temp gauge, so, they all live in the boot at the moment.
Get a shed load of Jubilee clips (hose clips) Halfords are as good as any, you will use a lot of these!
