Thanks heaps guys!
Matt, you should print out your post or make up another log of the resto and give that to your Dad as well so he can understand the effort that you have gone to with this. I reckon it would bring a tear to his eye.
I think I will do that, it is a bit hard to explain what was done just by looking at photos
I can't wait to see it in the flesh on Monday.
Hopefully it is all working for you too see, I still haven't turned it back on. Going to set it up for freeplay this arvo then check everything is working again.
I really hope you do more machines to this standard 
Thanks mate, I didn't really have time to go 'all Nino' on it
, but maybe one day I'll rebuild all the mechs and polish them up as well
