I have emailed this guy a few times. A Texan living in Japan, with a Bellett. Lots of pictures.

Memories, memories, almost nightmare stuff, know every bit he is talking about, haven't had one with the screw on bits :o that would be bit daunting.as Greg says " why would you do it again?" the one thing in his favour is that there are some parts available in Japan. Rebuild for SOHC should not be problem, engine parts usualy interchangable with something.He is doing nice job on it. have read the start of this post of when he bought it, and also read his story on the other car he rebuilt, I think was a Mitsubishi, also a pretty rare car

Something for you to look forward to Glenn. :D

Cheers Geoff

yes, at the start he said it had no rust ...... famous last words !

But he seems to be doing a good job on it so far. His workshop is an old shop and he lives above it
