Yes its been rebuilt, not quite stock , no idea what timing gear but I would assume not fibre

Yes its Apache red, Nigel the bloke in the photo came home from hospital in the back of this car - was almost new then :thumbsup:

It has enough cylinders - just the wrong colour :evilll: :evilll: :evilll:

Looks a treat, Blacky - great work in the engine bay too... how some would drool at the opportunity to clean up an engine bay without the motor in situ....

Is it going yet?.... must be tempting..

frats,
Rosco

Had a visitor today - bloody good timing too , Nigel was a machinist in a previous life and my lathe had crapped itself - he turned up while i was trying to fix it and sorted it all out for me plus we gave it a long overdue birthday ImageImageImageImage
