It's alive.....

Horray!

After weeksmonths of work, pain, bad advice, crap workmanship and cold weather the Chimaera is back together.

Started first time.
Next job is to get the radiator replaced/recored and switch the alternator our with my spare, because the charging light fails to go out.

Brilliant to have it back on the road.

Nearly there

My friend has been really busy so only just got the heads back.
Heli-coils look good.

Bought yes another head gasket set - head bolts and valley cover and started putting things back together today.

Heads are on - inlet manifold is on.

Just got:

• Rocker covers
• Injection system
• Pas pump
• Heater pipes
• the dreaded exhaust manifolds
• and poly vee belt

to put back on then I should be ready!
