Okay update. Remember Marcia she received the 1412 Motor which has been brilliant. She also got the Gold Spectems. I have put the Mikuni carb and just tweaking it just a little more and I'm really happy with it.
Picked up the Moke from a good Mate who cut all the rust out and replaced it all, well with the exceptions of the Heater holes / hole lol.
Both the motor & wheels are going on the moke. I'm considering a few little options also to the motor. At this stage she is going to be Gunmetal Grey or as has been mentioned many times "clear coat" wait and see.
Slammed and nice full role cage with X brace to the rear

Leave outside for a month or 2 to generate some "patina" then clear coat....

Your mate looks to have done a bang up job with the rust removal..

Clear coat over plain steel? Nah, I'd paint it in olive drab, but then I'm a WW2 Jeep lover. :lol: Nope I don't own one (but I do have a `97 Cherokee) 8)
