    I'll get a pic when I can.
    It's bare - nothing attached. The flywheel was badly cracked so I gave it to someone to make a sculpture (like you do).
    It was replaced because both heads had receding valves seats probably only one in each, but it was 3-4 years ago and I can't remember. LP did an exchange deal, but try as I might he won't take it away. He's been to the workshop twice since and just changes the subject when I try and give it to him. lol
    It drove itself to the workshop.
    Because it was destined for Laurie (who would strip it), I didn't bother filling the holes to keep the poop out, but I didn't drain the oil either. It's probably best to assume it's full of dust and nuts and washers.

    Might be interested how much work do you think it will need and will have to work out the cost of conversion from a t1
     
  3. you're going to need all the cooling tins and fan and bits... flywheel, carbs, exhaust, then there's the rebuilding!!

    Type 4 is the best thing you'll ever do to your van tho :)
