The engine is mechanically very good it sounds very good, but it has lots of oil leaks to sort, the engine will be coming out for a full re gasket and inspection soon enough,

The drivetrain needs TLC, im going to replace every arm, bush and joint, the driveshafts are coming out for a full refurb with new joints etc etc, then tracking as its scuffing tyres badly it knocks and rattles from the under side, fuel tank will be comming out for a new pump and inspection,
Full service sensor kit, loom etc etc, at that point i will be more interested in how it performs, but at the moment i would hapilly trade 200bhp for nice driability. bit by bit i will build her to a std im happy with, my old T34 saff was and still is the most responsive YB ive driven and thats what i want this one to be like. but it has to be a nice place to be and most important;y it has to be reliable and trouble free.
Tuning it is on my list, but its a low prioroty and right at the bottom.
