Yes and if Dannyboy  have had  went the extra mile and finnished it  he probaly not sold it to me 

Gav sent me the engine and gearbox mountings and it has transformed the G there was an unbearable

vibration on it before they were replaced

Re: A Big Thanks to Gav Helme and More

Sorry the restoration was done in England 2 odd years ago

We got it just needing rebuilt and tidying up

some more things to do like passenger wiper spindle

heater is blowing a fuse every time I turn blower on 

 

Someone done a real botch job on the wiring and we are patching this as we find it 

engine is fuming a good bit when on idle but clears up on drive 

might get the injectors checked 

Starts first turn of the key and runs smooth 

no history whatsoever  an old Mot and loads of tax discs
