Is that a Craigslist find?  Looks like it was already out and sitting.  Rusty flywheel.

Looks complete.  Those EGR pipes and parts can be valuable.  They tend to get mangled on removal.

It was a friend of a friends'. Sitting on a stand for a little while but not too worried as it'll be rebuilt anyway. For now I'll sit on it in case I need to harvest any parts for my original motor, which should be going back in within the next 2-3 weeks (I've been saying that for a while ?).

It's been a slow month/six weeks due to work and moving house, but some progress this past weekend. Starting to put the front end back together. Hopefully things pick up speed over the next few weeks.

Such a pretty green car...

Kevin, you want to turn this around 180* and have the rubber bumper just touching the cross member.

 

Good catch! I was distracted by the green .....

Very good catch! I also find myself distracted by the green pretty often ? 

Gents, I'm assuming this crusty old wire/switch is for the reverse light switch. However, it mounts to the top of my transmission as opposed to the side (which I have seen). Can anybody tell me if the one linked below will fit? It looks entirely different...

Thanks!

That is a white plastic air breather with some undercoating on it, the wire, no idea.

So that begs the question - where is my reverse light switch?

It screws into the side of the transmission should have two wires coming off it

Front brakes fitted. Slowly but surely...

The reverse switch is the brass object near the middle bottom.
