Congrats and welcome to the forum. Best advice I can say at this time is to buy an official Bentley Repair manual for your little buggy, and if you haven't inspected the timing belt yet, do that quickly. I would also replace the fuel filter, even if it looks new.
Everybody else lists their cars here - but not me.

I have too many to count

Looks like OP is not active anymore. Maybe he's done with his project or he sold it.
