Same engine as a Ford Model T! 😁
I t-boned a Ford Anglia with my Bonneville in the seventies and the car came off worse. The paint was holding the bodywork together.

Kent engine. 1340 fitted to Consul Classic was even worse.

Early Kent, later they went 5 main brg. Essex was the big cast V4 and 6, now the V6 was one i could build blindfolded, would last forever if you changed the oil pump and drive shaft every 80,000

Just waiting new chain tensioner and an o ring for that front tube.

Not so keen on this. Looks like it has been hacked with a screwdriver by someone trying to open it. The top end has been off before. It was covered in sealant as well. Do we think this will seal ok with new gasket?
