That motor looks too clean. Get him a crappy old dirty motor that he can do the hard work on instead :spoton:

Looks good mate! :D

Good on him for getting into it and good luck. :spoton:

Well we got it going and he decided to drive it around yard,
and being a young fella he decided to give it a big rev and drop the clutch
plenty of wheel spin and a little sidways action,then he remembers no master cylinder/brakes
and through the back fence he goes,then he felt my belt around his arse.
and then we spent a day sorting out the parkbrake,
