What a wonderful LD28 world.....
I am the guy from Australia again, who had the unfortunate mishap of the valve seat drop (sorry Al, i know the pictures)(Have taken more now the whole thing is out and apart). Anyway, i looked high and low trying to scout out myself another LD28...nothing. Was ready to sell vehicle as is, and was about to upgrade until.......a chance call to a friend in Melbourne 3 weeks ago, who suggested a wreckers who then put me onto someone who had 2 of them. Upon speking to this guy he agreed to sell both of them to me for $1000AUS
One complete motor(needs new timing belt) and one motor no accesssories, ie block, crank, head, no ip pump, alt. etc. So now i've got 2 and a half LD28's....sorta..haha
So.......what's all this talk about turbos......i reckon that's the direction i would like to take my new LD28's. :lol:
