If only it was my own garage! Engine for the new Speed 12 is built and ready to go on the dyno. V12/dry sumped/bespoke oil pump/injectors/lots of new shiny parts! It is all wired up - just needs linking to the ECU. Brian is currently making the parts required to sit it on the dyno. Won't be long.

That Countach is in the queue for a major rebuild. Unfortunately some vermin got inside where the owner had it stored. There is the remains of a nest in the glove box!

The so called "New" Speed 12 is likely to be on the road before W112 BHG, just due to timing of getting the work completed.

Nice! Aston?
What are you aiming for hp wise? I guess with correct exhaust it will really pull.
