I will put another one together as I have most of the bits but I think i will have a week or so off from it. The joke was I did some mods on the chassis and it felt better than it had for ages infact since I had to jack up the suspension to run in Post Historics so i was confident I could make the time up with the lower power 'reliable' engine I bought in good faith. 4 laps into qually and it grenaded big time and I mean really big time as evident from the piece of piston hanging out the sump! One thing for sure though the underneath of this nearly 40 year old car will never rot with all the liberal coatings of oil generously smeared regularly down the floor pan and chassis :-)
