*wakes up*
*eyes up pair of Daimler lumps*
I have one running one which I am fairly sure I would like to keep but you are welcome to the second seized one. It don't look too bad to be fair (I've wipped the heads off) and methinks some o the good ol boiling diseasel poured on it will do the trick of freeing it up.
You're more than welcome to come and get the seized one for free.

Theres a dozen reasons not to use these. But thats what sensible people care about. They look cool. They sound cool. Black8Driver had one for sale a while back with a manual trans, did Tigran buy that one?

Friday is my day off, so yah I'd be around.
But my engine crane is in Bournemouth, and these are heavy muthas. Gimme a shout if you don't have one or can't get hold of one, I'm sure I can nick one off a mate.

right i've got no room to carry crane and engine back, other problem is I'm thinking of putting it were passenger seat should go in minx since I don't have any other transport, u think two of us could lift it since heads are off? Or is this a really bad plan! My emails phoenixmk2escort@hotmail.com drop me an email with ur phone number n I'll give u a call probably easier to sort it that way.
Cheers!
