I'm probably happier with that than the other option. Thanks.

Luckily a lad who did some welding for me recently has just bought a recovery truck so I'll be phoning him tomorrow.

Got an engine hoist for loan if you need one when it comes time to strip. I might even be able to give you a hand for a couple hours when the time comes

Is the box and diff same as petrol? If I did that and put in a motor from another car what are the chances of getting an age related plate?

Hmm I'd need a harness and ecu from a petrol jobby as well.
