I wondered where you'd been Stratman. Welcome back. Great progress too. Good colour combination and Dunlops just make it
Also see Daz contributed to this thread too. Where are you Daz and your superb Island Blue Mk2

Engine in! The rebuild was moving along quite quickly at this point. Special thanks to Chris Allitt for the fantastic work on the engine, which is almost standard spec, +0.040, standard Cooper D top pistons, swiftune cam kit.
