At crossroads
 

Mike Noc kindly came over and took the head off and it's not good news. A couple of melted pistons. I'm now at a point where I don't know if I can carry on with it. It will need a replacement engine for sure and this can't be done at my property. Now considering cutting my losses and getting shot of it.

Engine?

Well done, to claim your £5.00 prize............

Ouch - I know how that feels - I was at a similar position this time last year.

I mentioned on here that i was Considering getting rid ............ However, i'm glad to say this goes against the Club Ethos :} and, i was encouraged/inspired and helped to sort it out :cool:

I'm Glad i persevered - I've added to my experience and the Car is still going strong :}


If the Engine is beyond viable repair - maybe this would be an option (if still available)

Re engine
 

Again, my problems are twofold. I simply can't undertake an engine change here where I live. I have no off road premises and all the car parking is communal for the residents. Secondly, that engine, nice as it is, is £1000.00 and then what is the cost of removal and replacement? I'm not prepared to spend the best part of two grand on a car that's worth four hundred quid! It's not an E-type y'know.
