nice job mate - I'm doing mine too at present and will be very happy if it turns out as good as that. Some clown earlier in the life of my car had sprayed the entire engine bay, brackets and all, in bitumen sound deadening stuff - how hard do you reckon that is to get off! 
Nearly done though. You've inspired me to make sure I take the time and do it right. Cheers Peter.

Day to strip out the loom,brake lines and anything else removeable and start cleaning treating rust etc. couple of hours on two separate days to hand paint Por15 on the subframe. Half a day to mask up and give 2-3 coats of primer. Then it sat for about a month or so while I found someone that would supply auto enamel in a pressure pack can and me to get the time to drive an hour each way to get it  Couple of hours to give it two coats and another touch up after I took the photo and could see the bits I missed
It's good to start putting things back  Overhauled wiper motor and mechanisim is back - next the new loom and new brake lines
