Will need to dig out the camera and take a few shots of my dad's fleet. Off the top of my head the stuff he has lying about Merc 190 Cosworth, Bentley Turbo, Forest prepared MKII flat front RS 2000 (Finnish) and a few Triumphs that've rotted out now.
Hidden MKII Jag, Mitsubishii Evo X and probably a few other I've forgotten about.

Also a fella I do work for occasionally is a huge French car nut, mainly 60's and 70's sruff. Tony already knows this. Was in his store the other month and without actually knowing much about them I'd estimate he has around £30 K of engine and gearbox parts in there.
That's without counting what he has scattered around the workshop on various projects and sitting in many rotting corpses.

What could you do with my 3.2 Coxster ???Sadly it's going up for sale soon to finance a smallie motor and credit cards. Got 3 Coxster engines on the go at work...all fucked their intershaft bearings. £10k cars that are having £6k rebuilds, that will make the cars worth £10K. Sell it quick!! This was our 4 cars at Silverstone last weekend, we're at Brands this weekend. It's on ITV4 all day Sunday. Look out for Car #20. He's won 5 of the last 6 races.

Currently work for a Porsche team doing engine/gearbox work. Sort of retired from going racing. Best job I ever had was between '89 and '92 working on a 6R4 in European Rallycross Championship. Hard work but lots of laughs.

Went to collect this with a friend over the weekend... 1965 Ford Mustang 5.0L V8 Engine!! Has had a full nut and bolt rebuild, engine rebuild and complete professional paint job in the states before it was shipped over to the UK. Also my boss at work has a sunbeam alpine! Will have to get some pics of it next time he brings it in
