No pictures as i smashed the crap outa my phone when i dropped it but.
engine in, clutch casing on, oil pump pipes on , carbs on. that was fun getting the airbox boots in place :clap: and then the pipes popped on, all it really needs now is coolant and fuel sorted and a check over and i should be good for a start up :thumbup:

fingers crossed :thumbup:
