This is something I am working on right now, does not belong to me, just doing the work. Thought it might interest some of you, I know a few for sure.

A few more pics...
Tearing into this old beast to find the problem...
Engine access is pretty good with this flip front...
I found the problem! Apparently somehow this snake managed to get inside the engine and eat the timing chain. Obviously the engine couldn't run without it's timing chain. I found the snake coiled up asleep under the timing cover.

Been a while... Aarif in case you still wondering, it was not a real snake, it was the broken timing chain!
MG Man call me and harass me into logging onto Zorce, so I decide to show a lil something... Let me see who could identify the cars.
