How wrong I was. I didn't really appreciate her work ethic when chatting to her about the car. This is more like a restoration. Looks like no stone is unturned. It seems that she doesn't want to let a car out of her workshop unless she was 100% happy with it as if it were her own.

Which is exactly what you need; not just the visible faults repaired but every potential issue dealt with preventively.
Done properly now, it should want for nothing (except an occasional service) for years to come.
Looking forward to seeing it completed!
Will you be able to make it to next year's annual meet Dean, so that we can see this stunning car and its (soon to be) sparkling clean engine bay in the flesh?
