When you decide you want to sell, I'd be interested in the price without engine and interior.
Cheers Dave

engine is a 1916 built by stan in the early days. This engine was purchased by me from a mate who had it stored. engine was fitted up to neville the notchback and was running around for several months in which time it ran perfectly. cam is not wild and has really good power, stan used this same cam in his tow type 3 wagon. Crank is not counterweighted but was balanced, heads were mildly ported but are not anything radical. Basicly it is a good running strong 1916. cheers.

anyone considering purchasing would be wise to get the engiine as part of the deal as it is well worth it. cheers

How much for just the motor?

Looks fantastic, what's left to do on it?

satori - April 5th, 2013 at 05:16 PM

Need it sold.... Longer it sits in my shed the harder it is to sell.

What work needs to be done on it to complete?

satori - April 7th, 2013 at 06:31 AM

Hood lining
new windscreen seal
under dash wiring and engine wiring
lining up all doors
fitting front doors winder mech's
fitting steering wheel and indicator switch
fitting interior properly

The body also needs some touch ups and fixing up to be perfect. Front left guard isnt great. I was going to take it back and give it a straighten and respray, bottom of the drivers door has a knick to fix up. If I were keeping it I would probably fix the little scratchs and imperfections and give it a couple more coats of colour as I have the paint there to do it. Really easy to do in acylic too. Just give it a very light sand to knock the shine off, spray a couple of coats then buff. I could also get this done before sale at extra cost.

Why are you still advertising this if you won't sell ??

satori - April 27th, 2013 at 03:11 PM

Can't totally delete it sorry. At this stage I'm tryIng to finish it off or atleast have it running. I was all for selling a few weeks ago but have since been finishing off bits and pieces. Have stripped and re detailed the engine and have the rear IRS stripped to raise it a inch or so as it was to low. Will keep you posted.
