Italy

So.....Giordano and Alessio has dismantled the body and are now working on the chassis, cutting, chopping and in some cases welding new pieces

In the meantime, the new engine has arrived, is brand new, in mint condition and dated 1952.
Giordano told me that he found it in germany and arrived in a pressurized metal container. These boxes used to be throw out of the airplanes with parachutes and landed on camp sites for the troops to replace the broken engines.

The interesting thing is that the engines came already with spark plugs and oil inside, the troops just needed to remove the broken engine and replace it with the new one. A piece of cake! The engine is completely original expect for the fan

Take care..
