Remember that back in the 1970's / 80's Allan Woolf had a coffee table made from a geniune Ford BDA block - engine that had some damage- later he sold the block to some guy to rebuild as " ' so ' valuable " by then ..

In my time wasn't in the house but had three incomplete projects, one in the single garage a Austin London Hire car and outside a Sunbeam Talbot and a Sprite plus a donor MG Midget as well as the Carless Day A40, the TR4A and for a time a Dodge Ambulance - don't think the neighbours were impressed as work often went on all weekend - never finshed any of the three projects as always buying another car !!
