bit of fitting up done
the master cylinder is a n,o,s one but as the servo worked fine, i just cleaned it up painted it satin black, the brackets for it looked like they were originally silver under the grime & rust so i painted these silver, the engine is going to be replaced with this one
its only done 23,000 miles & looks untouched apart from a replacement water pump so that will get a new clutch & go straight in. Judging by the way it's painted, vauxhall assemled the engine & gearbox with all ancillaries attached, covered the carb & dizzy & painted the lot, you can see overspray on the inlet manifold, oil & water temperature sender & earth strap. The original engine seems to have been painted the same way, which leads me to think this
