Top notch machine machine and an excellent runner.

Great video as well. I always think that commentary on a video makes it so much more interesting.

Well done.

Wow, that is a great one, I bet the leak repair will make it even better running. Real nice.

Another quality engine for the ever-growing collection. And another rare old beauty – just look at the old lady run despite her leaks - lovely!  
And thank you for yet another fine video
