When I say borrow, i really mean come and use as it could be difficult to take away with you!
Couldn't you just dig it up and take it away? I mean, it wouldn't take up much space, it's only a hole. Indeed it should fit in the boot of a Wedge, especially if you fold it up the right way

Took me a few days and that was with the body off.
But I did take it all down to bare metal.
you may want to think about using POR15, but you don't want to get that in your face, also your need to remove any grease and flaky paint.
All depends on how long you want it to last.

If it can wait 6-12 month's I'll be quiting my day job, and doing TVR Repairs and tuning. Inc body off restorations.
If it goes through the MOT today I may very well take you up on that Leigh - I have had it checked a couple of times and been told it is all solid but has some surface shyt on it. I also have a tin of POR15 on standby for the job when I was foolish enough to think I might do this myself 
suppose it is too early to get an estimate numbers wise?Edited by PR350 on Friday 25th April 11:56

As long as you don't use Wedgeless as your name as that's my idea !!! Good luck with that Leigh, wish I had the guts and the space to do it myself

I think you'll need a bigger kitchen, Leigh 
Still a clean place for an engine rebuild
