Keep in mind always, you are working with a vehicle about 76 years old. There is going to be a huge difference between what we are used to today in vehicles and what was normal in 1945. Not to say that it will break due to age, not going to happen, they were solidly built.
Eg, all the grease nipples in the chassis, no alternator, mechanical fuel pump, vague steering, awesome aircon winter and summer, moribund windscreen wipers, synchro on the gears, max speed is 50mph, etc.
