2.5 engine popped in, piece of cake, well apart from lots of swearing and no skin left on my knuckles !

Nice! But I guess it needs some work before the engine is up and running?

Well its been a while but the warm weather making me motivated to push ahead with the E21. Engine out had a M20 2.5 but decided to change to M52 2.8. Lots of Rot on the HennaRot but getting through it. New Sills arrived with Wings. The suspension is now at the Sandblasters - can't wait to paint. Not sure if I will paint car same colour or change.
