Welcome - looks like you're going to have fun :D

:think: that engine looks familiar, was this one advertised on eBay recently as an unfinished project?

Well done for saving 8-)

hi yes i think it was on ebay but think it attracted just time wasters , gonna be a bit of a project may take a while as dont get heaps of spare time trying to slowly source bits to get engine and box back together and try and work out what bits are missing need a exhaust manifold for starters and poss a full exhaust as it looks a bit past it , will post up some ads in wanted v soon :D are there any other lude owners in devon
