glad you have finally started the petter Ian..

as for the wheels matt they came from a feller in Poole back a while ago mate....

and yes i do have a large amount of wheels,and once ive dug them out of the shed i mite be selling some
but there again with all the messers out there i think i mite use them for something....

Once again thanks all for the comments, a little bit more progress today was achieved hopefully will get trolley finished tomorrow so i can start the rebuild later this week as i will be building it up on the trolley,

final coat on the last of the flywheels,

Petter m 3hp, progress being made at last IMG_0381

first coat on the block will leave to harden while working on the trolley now for a cpl of days then flat down and second coat, by then trolley should be all ready to start building up the engine,

Good to see you making progress, the block does look small compaired how big the engine is when finished. I thought you'd be wearing a white coat Dr when working on your engine Laughing Laughing Laughing

Fingers crossed that all goes well and she runs a treat for you.
