haha there was only 2 of the 8 body mounts that were not rotten, so lining it back up will be fun.

Didnt realize i hadn't updated this is a while:
got the 1.3 engine mounted in the chassie:
then repaired the front grill surround :
cleaned up the engine bay, well all the crap off:
the 1.3 seemed to be sitting much further forward so ive moved the rad forward on some brackets i made up;
new electric fan and brackets made:
new manifold fitted:
rear brake lines and breathers done:
really short vid of it running rough, borrowed a carb off my mates super charged mini and it fired straight up, got my SU carb coming and got to re build:
