In the 3rd pic, there is what looks like a fuel line with a T piece in it? or is it a vacuum feed from the airbox? curious
 
Might as well stick these up as well:p

I think Steptoe must have ran out of space and stored this one in his garden pond. Amazing what moisture can do.
 
That looks suspiciously like the anchor BHT had on the previous yacht.:rolleyes:
 
Judging by the parts shown and previous projects, I think he'll 'biggerate' the engine if the heads will take it and stuff the cowl on to make it like a 100CS.

Then he and Magnon will have drag races up and down Melton High Street when all of the rozzers knock off at 17.00.
 
How about a nice resto back to standard /7 spec? Won’t fetch as much £££ but might be rarer!

In years to come, it may well rocket in value, when everyone twigs that all the other /7s have been turned into something else....keep it original
