& TA2D, I'll list it all tomorrow for you. It's nothing fancy though!
So, I gave it all a wash down as it was subjected to a lot of dirty rain water on the way over. She's all nice and clean now, I've also ordered one of these to keep the shell covered up and protected.
Removing the standard cam.
Metro cam at the back.
All reassembled with the timing in check.
Block mated with the gearbox and the head placed on top.
Will be out there bright and early tomorrow

And any questions relating to when will it be finished, as soon as possible! a few months.. hopefully!
More today..
Getting bits on and out of the cupboards to free up some space. Everything is cleaned beforehand to ensure it's in tip top condition!
Switch panel The welding and fillering has come out fantastic, you'd never know!
Getting the engine back together.
Together! just about.
Front end up and on axle stands.
And the rear, I'd imagine this is how she'll stay until finished.
Rear harness bar in and secured. Looks so good!
Details of the shell I'd forgotten I'd done.. so chuffed.
Starting to give her a face.
Arch liners pushed in, I will cut these down and secure them tomorrow.
