Sonestarick - Starter Motor Issues

Hi Simon/ all interested in this issue.
I have had Russell Walsh working on the '75 last week, coolant running through the engine building pressure which prevented the engine from turning over and firing up. Russell stripped out the heads etc which have now been skimmed etc ready for the rebuild. Russel returns tomorrow Wed 28th Feb to rebuild the engine etc. Hopefully nothing else proves to be an issue. Replacing all the obvious as we go sourced from the boys at DMGRS Southampton which once again have proved to be really helpful with advice and delivery etc. So come Wed/ Thurs we will hopefully be back on the road but although I am the eternal optimist I am always prepared for the next saga in any story !
I will keep you posted, cheers
