Any photo's of these engines? I remember going down to Kent and see Bob and Bob's Dad's living van! What a masterpiece, not sure if he's ever finished it?

But took no photos.Think this will be best when it is finnished

Ahh fair enough.

Are you based down in Sellindge as well then Ross?

Unsure on whether I met you a few years back when me, my dad and my now late grandad David Hirst went down there for a trip to see Bob Hobbs and various other people for more of his 'deals' which my grandad did. We turned up in his campervan and I remember sitting in one of the workshops with a group of blokes for ages whilst grandad had a good laugh with them and told them lots of stories etc...

Slightly off topic I know.

Left the wallis down there to do preston rally and fit rubbers.Be back in Surrey at end of the month.Wallis did better than expected.
