” Forget the telly – how about a V12, 27 litre, 1600 bhp RR Merlin for the corner of the lounge? I’ve just bought myself a Spitfire engine for the front room. Got to be one of the best sounding engines ever made – proper mint.” (GM)

I just hope it aint the one from a certain Dell Boy in Essex who had it on ebay then withdrew it then put it in the auction at Brooklands on 16th February .
Sorry if it is and your cheque hasnt cleared you still have time to change your mind and believe me if and when you see the engine you will want to change your mind!!!!!! very much if you have paid anything like the price he was talking as its a crash site engine very smash and grab full of filler very mangled,very seized and painted with black tar and a lavatory brush !!!

No that pillock is still trying to rip folks off at the Brooklands Auction in February.
I wish I knew about it as I am looking for one ???.
Anyone got a half decent crank case only they dont want as I have one with a damaged reduction gear case.and I could do with one unless someone has the front part of a crank case with the reduction gear end in good nick and then does someone know if we can then graft it onto my damaged engine ??
I dont do welding on castings :D:D:D:D:D
