Subject: Re: M45 engine on ebay
Hi David,
I will do so as soon as I can. I'm quite curious, myself, to see just how bad a state it is in.
The chap selling it seems to be quite genuine, in every sense, but knows little about the engine's history (IIRC, the number is M45/75). it seems that he went to see a man about a dog called Rover. In addition to the Rover parts, he agreed to clear an old garage of everything else in it. Amongst the relics he found was the M45 engine. All this took place quite recently, apparently. The eBay seller knew nothing about Lagondas at that point and so was pleasantly surprised by his good fortune.
I am on the hunt, now, for a suitable frame.
Tim
