Yeah the pics on eBay are very flattering. It's a sad heap in person though. So far gone it's beyond most enthusiasts bar the most doggedly determined and financially stupid 😂

I have engine bay pics now thanks to a fellow forum member...will post as soon as I can figure out how!

I see 'Gerry' has ended auction on eBay. Anyone know if he is still trying to flog it somewhere?

If there's any justice in the world, ebay heard about the state of it and ended it themselves and he is currently on holiday at Her Majestys Pleasure. Doubt it somehow though.

Apart from the t-piece and blocked off vacuum hose, not too bad at a glance really. I was expecting an horror film!

Hoses zip tied to the brake cylinder allude to someone playing with the boost.

How did you know that the head gasket and turbo had blown?

Where goes the crankhouse vent to?
Can't see. To the exhaust maybe.
I think there is more to solve, Kay
