E93A Sump wanted

I am considering modifying my engine to increase the size of the sump by welding on some side 'panniers'. Has anyone got an old wrecked/rusty E93A engine they want to get rid of?  I would rather experiment on another sump so that I have my original to fall back on if it fails!  Thabks  Tony

Exe Valley Trial

In view of the lastest outbreak of Foot & Mouth, and the nationwide ban on the movement of cattle, the organisers of the event have decided that rather than alienate their various land owners; National Park Authorities and Forest Enterprise, they must cancel this weekend's event.

FREE! Motor Sport and Safety Fast Magazines

L&G,
 
I have a great heap of various motoring magazines for disposal due to imminent house move. They are FREE to taker(s).
If nobody wants them they will be consigned to oblivion.
 
Motor Sport covering 1973 to June 1989. It's not a complete run, the following are missing:
Jan, May, Jun, Aug 1973
Apr1978
Jul 1982
Jun, Aug-Nov 1983
1984 - I only have Feb & Dec
Jan 1985 missing
Dec 1988 missing.
 
I also have MGCC Safety Fast covering 1985 to date, again with some missing.
 
Also a few years of  Thoroughbred and Classic Cars (late 1970s).
 
...and two Haynes Manuals:
Maestro inc MG (good condition but thumbed)
MG Midget (Faded cover, heavily thumbed, but all there)
 
While away the evenings as you wait for the Edinburgh...!
 
In addition, I have year 1 bound T&CC magazines (Oct 73-Sep 74) in good condition available for a reasonable offer.

MG Midget diffs

L&G,
It's a few years since I last campaigned my Midget (1992 was a 'few' years ago?!), so I offer for sale two diffs to suit an MG Midget that have been lurking in my garage all that time.
One is 8:43 the other looks to be 4.2:1.
They're both a bit grubby and need a good clean but appear to be complete and intact - in fact a complete strip and rebuild is recommended...
The housing of the 8:43 unit has a filler plug, so may be from a Minor van??
Looking for a new home for them...
Reasonable offers entertained.
Location - Between Bristol and Stroud.
