Size:  64.5 KBhello everyone, around 9 years ago,we had our first son,i was told that my honda s2000 had to go,i agreed as long as i could have a toy in the garage,so i bought a 1937 ford y. drove it as it was for 3 years whilst i stripped down the little daimler v8 engine i had acquired.it was my first engine rebuild,so alot of research and advice was needed,when engine was running i stripped the car and started the repairs to the chassis,as this project has been going for a while i will post stuff and let you know when we are up to the present date....
    cheers.
