Across in Dallas 2










When I have restored cars in the past I have done most of the work myself so the big attraction of going to Will's wasto be involved, learn about the car and feel I have had some input - all of this was achieved with Will's great help and that of his new assistant Steve.




My main tasks were around cleaning and preparing parts for re-installation and observing the re-assembly of the engine. The car has received a new block and head at some time from Mercedes, restamped with the original engine number. Steve thinks that the majority of the internals were retained at that time but a good number were changed this time.
