And just for Ta2Don, I know its hardly on topic or even a truck

How I got her and just a taste of the condition

The rest was the same. All the floors inner fenders, rockers, spring hangers, trunk bottom and outer, entire engine bay was all replaced. Took 2 years of cutting and welding. 15kg of MIG wire and heaven knows how much Argon, but this is what she looks like now

She still isnt quite finished but the end is in site, maybe as little as 4 weeks away.

At one point I did consider dropping in a 350 SBC but Im glad I decided to stick with the 948cc A serise (it sounds correct for the wee car - as you can hear in the video):-

Not quite a V8. Barely one cylinder to be honest, but its as it should be.
