How I forgot I had this I'll never know! Sadly the rust has found a way in past the oily rag... an excellent paper weight I assume?
I am about 3/4 way through my old mini storage garage now, so this may well be the last interesting find.
Still digging out old stuff - 1071 crank??

Cheers Simon - thankfully just the light and reflection. I was going to bin this, so thanks for the positive noises everyone.
Well maybe not bin, bin it but make a feature of it somewhere, which may well still need to be the case.
This what comes from diverting attention to Cosworths for over 25 years!!!

I'm unsure about the rust penetration and will check the sizes when I next go over to my unit.
My inbox has been filling up about this and thanks for the interest everyone. I have replied in order but it wasn't my intention to sell, just to get advice.
