That's it boy's, all done, it's taking 2 weeks [ a few hours every night] with the help from Sandy and John T [thank you]. Started stripping engine down and yes it was the gaskets rusted away on each side caused by not enough anti freeze from last owner not being changed regular, then getting cylinders heads skimmed then re-seating the valves,then it was a case of cleaning everything down and re-assemble,easy eheek just a case of taking pictures to confirm things.
Started her up last night first time sounding like a tractor need to adjust the exhaust pipes
Then on the road againdriving.
