What's a good book on body restoration? doesn't necessarily have to be on minis. Areas need to read up on:

Sand/soda/bead blasting, fixing body panels, welding, filler, sanding, primer, spray etc

Would like a comprehensive guide from beginners to advanced techniques for bedtime reading :lol:

Cheers,

`Car bodywork repair manual' by Lindsay Porter isn't a bad read.

I have Gregorys 401 (car body repairs) and 409 (spray painting), borrow if you want.
