I was happy to see that as well.

Just interesting to see how untouched this car is - still has brass washers on the bonnet hinges :

Bought a NOS front light cover for car while it was available :

I wouldn't mind a new set of indicator lenses

The difference they make to the car will really be noticeable.

I wouldn't mind a set either.

Well, I decided to take the head off the 'S' motor today to see exactly what we have underneath. Looks to be a GTS head :

The bores are good and clean, no ridges. Also looks to be standard bore from the quick measurements we took :

And the gearbox, with laygear 22G927, so nothing fancy :

Lastly, the cam we're thinking of using in the car at some stage :

yeh thats a cut cam, not a genuine ST 649. (genuine should read 648)

Nothing wrong with it though.

Was looking online, they were marked either C-AEA-648 or AEA-649, so could well be a genuine one. Not saying it is.
