Default Pendine Prep 13. Big inch Flatty almost ready! MGB seat fitted!

Hello and welcome to Mart's Garage. In this video I build up the big inch flatty from a bare engine into a complete motor almost ready to run, including a new remote filter system. I then fit one of the MGB seats so I will be ready for the first test drive.
I hope you find it interesting, it's another step in the right direction in getting the car ready for racing on the beach at Pendine.

Mart,
Love the fab details in oil filter mounting! And the seat supports! Awesome work. Can't wait for start up. I may have to go get the 32 truck out for a ride!
Regards,
Chris
