Yes! Re-installation of the prime-mover, the aesthetically improved motor plus transmission rebuilt by the Top Dog of Kendal, into the ex-Lubbock collection 356D…accompanied by good tunes (and food delivered to the garage), but sadly no beer since the introduction of lower drink drive limits in Scotland. :(

Probably good as we would have dropped the engine if we were getting into the Kwak...

No. There is still much to do. But I'm over the hump now and can crack on again.

It'll be on the road when the salt is washed away in spring. Although I did say the same last year...

Today I learned a whole lot more about MS, EDIS and whole bunch more odd letters and numbers thrown together. All courtesy of Tim 'impmad'. Yes, El Chucho will run one day thanks to the DDK massive! :)

Saved 'pounds'..by fabricating a new xenon light self levelling sensor arm for the Turbo, from folded and hammered aluminium, salvaged from the leg of a broken camping chair. :)
