Here's a rough assembly I did some time ago-
   
   The car was at Little Lever a village near Bolton, Lancs, it was known to the locals but had not been seen for a long time. Then one weekend the local Milkman, Bernard Moynaham when calling to collect his money found the elderly owner in a talkative mood and managed to buy it. Later when he went to collect it he found the garage in a bad state and it had rained over the years, the body was beyond hope as were the beaded edge wheels, rotted where they had been touching the floor. So he passed it on to me as spares for the car I was running at the time.

Upperc rankase, sump.
Timing chest gasket, jut need to trim, the faces on the aluminum castings seemed to fragile to use the tap it out with a hammer method-
   
   
   
   External drive to rotate the camshaft and thus run the oil pump to check its output-
   
   
   
   I had to let a new piece into the nearside of the chassis frame, made new front engine plate and the two rear engine/front spring mounting plates but steering box plate is an original, from the late Hugh Lupton along with the well base wheels and other useful bits.

Next, the clutch, here's the parts-
   
   
   Bottom right, the tubular steel part screws on to the crankshaft and doubles as a flywheel nut and support for the cast aluminum clutch plate which is bushed and runs on the outside. This provides the idler bearing that takes up the difference in speed when the clutch is parted. Bottom left the double helical spring lives inside the tube and thus is out of sight when the clutch is assembled

Drive shaft, clutch to universal joint-
   
   
   The square tooth coupling on the right takes the drive from the clutch, then below the clutch fork and thrust bearing. Above the steel disk is a clutch brake, then left the universal joint blocks  and spider. The whole shaft moves back to open the clutch, the sliding block universal joint taking the movement.
