Drove past about 16:30, saw a lovely black saloon. My sister car! But didnt see any others or any action happening so figured everyone had gone home, hope it went well!

I hope it went well as was pretty much tied up all day doing stuff not on my own list of things to do! Still productive but for others for a change.

Should have knocked :) I was still there (obviously lol) Would have been good to say hello! - The black saloon is filthy at the moment, need to clean it again!!

Yeah went really well, can't thank James enough for the loan of the engine crane! By 2pm we had done everything I wanted to do! Now all I have to do is find someone to take the shell away... get smokey to collect the engine and sell the rest of the parts off :)

Yep all good, Talkingcars engine hoist was a God send, couldnt have done it without it, well we could but would be talking with higher voices and using walking sticks.

Is a heavy old lump, but couldnt beat us three.

Only thing to remove is the roll pin, from the gearbox, we couldnt move it!!! ;);)

Talkingcars had all the kit, proper strapping and even shrink wrap stuff.

We got on well, think I was back home by 2.30 ish.

Sooner take it out, than put it back in!!!!!!!!!!!!!
