    Wow now that's an interesting project.

    The oldest I have done was a WLA and it had an almost running motor when I started!

    Quite a challenge especially finding those missing parts.

    Good luck and enjoy the process.

    Now you do have an abundance of patience don't you!!!!!!!

    I brought it in 1986 , and only about half of it, I now have all the major parts now, A lot of one year only stuff.

     

    it is now all the screws and fiddly bits to round up, but they are easy

     

    The oil was used to soak the rear cylinder on that engine to unseize it, didn't work this time, piston swollen to much
