Most auxiliaries rebuilt to top standard, including clutch, magneto, carburettor (main & starting), water pump, fan assembly, all engine linkages, ignition distributor tower, etc., etc. Re-profiled camshaft with new followers, brakes, springs and steering in fine condition, brake servo fully re-built. New king pins and radiator rebuilt for previous owner (bills with car). The engine is still to be rebuilt and fitted into the chassis. Parts still to purchase include a set of pistons, hot spot pipe for inlet manifold, cylinder studs. and a few relatively minor items. There are easily available. A complete new set of engine bearings (value apporx. 3'000) is already with the car. Some detail body work and painting is to be done. Further details readily provided upon request.
