Love that. Excruciating levels of patience. :)

Yeah - I always start off with good intents about taking pictures of what I'm doing.. and then forget, get engrossed and six months later wonder where all the little bits are meant to go back ;D
much like the heated seat guide TB and I did. Well, we took what we thought was loads of pictures at each stage, but when looking back through the pics to do the guide, it's not quite as comprehensive as we'd hoped. Us men, cant multi task. ;D

Probably was a spitfire  ;D My herald was a planned weekend job , just the bodywork needed tidying up but the engine was a good one ...would have liked to have got it back on the road again but gave up working outside in the frost  ::) Sold it to a bloke for kit car conversion  ;)

Fantastic  :y :y :y.
 An engine to me is like mandarin Chinese, I haven't the foggiest, amazing how many bits and bobs make it up.
