The Garage

My very humble garage, located lakeside on beautiful Nosbonsing. The Parts out off the boxes, from the first 1965. The new car comes with a spare 1200 so the plan is to rebuild that engine while driving on the 1300. I'm thinking for the 1200 just a header, P&P, Then swap and rebuild the 1300. Probably do it all up with header, cam, shim the head, port & polish, and depending on funding some side draft webers. But that's a ways down the road. What a messy garage, it's been cleaned up since then I swear. (5 dump runs later) Only part of the car that wasn't replaced was the rear bumper. Plan to get one from Obsolete Auto when I pick up the new car.
The front view with all the random crap laying around.
I was curious just how "big" these motors were size wise. ya.... they are MAMMOTHS.
Good thing these are all spairs, the pistons were scored very badly
I'm definately buying a new compressor.
