Free to good home: Rover V8

I have a rover 3.5 V8 engine with a 3 speed auto and transfer box out of an early Range Rover or Disco.

Its a none runner runner but is complete with carbs and most ancillaries.

Come get it if you can use it.

Its massive, the trans weighs 35 tons and dont have the room or materials to pack it up sorry.

Non runner, I reckon the cam drive has stripped, the motor turns over but the valves don't go up and down so I presume the nylon bit of the original duplex is kaput. And, this is what it looks like under the cam covers....
