What have you done today with your Austin Seven

[John Cornforth]

Today the weather has been gales and rain, but inside the workshop it's cosy.  Having undone countless bits and pieces I have now lifted out engine and gearbox ready for fettling all those niggles that have built up over the 20 years since it was last out.  The crane was borrowed from a friend and was last used for a Jag XK120 engine and box, so it's rather overkill for the humble Seven.

Now need a dry day so I can open the garage doors and trundle the jack further backwards and drop the assembly onto the wheeled custom engine stand/trolley.  I haven't actually built that yet, so there will be a short intermission....
