This is my work for the restoration of 365BB's engine in Japan.
The vehicle is the 1974 model with right steering wheel that I purchased for 36500 GBPi6500) from Duncan Hamilton & Co. in May, 2004. According to the claim of a shop, the mileage from a new car is 7900 miles. The inside of the engine was able to confirm that the condition was similar to brand-new when I completely dismantled it.
It is a state of the restoration of bolts and nuts as follows. I was able to recycle most parts, but 12 sleeves, the valve sheet and the valve guide had been re-produced newly. I asked for a revision of curve of the crankshaft. The work depended on a garage of Sony Furuya who was a pupil of Bob Wallace. In addition, the time required for the cosmetic restoration which was mostly a DIY-work for all parts was approximately 350 hours.
