I am restoring the above. Originally it would have had a Ford 100e engine fitted or maybe a Stuart turner, it appears that this has been replaced with an earlier Ford 10HP engine coupled with a Parsons gearbox. Either the gearbox or the engine is too long and as a result the fitter has modified the engine mounts, shortened the shaft and welded it directly to the coupling flange and done away with the stern gland seal. A real burty bodger! Does anyone have any more info on the said boat in particular what gearbox it would have been fitted with originally and where it can get replacement parts?
Thankyou
