Postby jonbaker » Fri May 27, 2011 7:02 pm

i have just bought a basket case, the frame and rolling chassis is a fs1e-a and the engine is earlier (mix in tank) i want to rebuild it as true to the original as possible.

It depends on your budget really? Back to original will obviously cost a lot more than a "Bitsa".

I may have some 200 series engine cases or even an autolube engine? I'll take a look and come back to you.

Per,

I'd also be interested in any 200 series cases you might have.

Thanks, Mike
