Just got the crap to chisel off the engine frame on the MM1 and then spray it

I was going to keep the paint on the se1a one as it was very good but it looked like it could peel off soon.

Looking mighty fine there James, thanks for the PM, I've been around, but haven't had much time to 'check in'.

The restoration looks amazing, I can't believe it's the same engine as the one in the first pictures. I'll have to save all the pictures of the restoration.

Let me know when your ready & i'll scrape the cash together, just had to spend a bit more than anticipated on the new (to me) car - £95 for a new battery

Ah well, school holidays will be over soon & I should have some spare cash after the Jr TSC has gone back to school

Catch ya later chaps,

TSC.
