I have just bought one of the V8 Development cars VIN 007, an appropriate sister car to my 260 SE, VIN 700.

It's been standing outside since early 2006 and is missing its engine and gearbox (an auto)and quite a bit else, so not an overnight restoraton!!

Sounds like an opportunity to try a different engine and gearbox LOL

It crossed my mind as did a supercharger, but the plan is to restore back to what it was originally - the first ZT V8 auto, the forerunner of the 75V8. All being well, it will have a little bit more horsepower, maybe 300.

I have a damaged ZT-TV8 that I bought as a breaker with the engine and box still fitted, maybe that would fill the empty hole in your engine bay?

Hello Martin, Well there's a thought! I am in the midst of acquiring a new engine/auto gearbox, but still would be interested to have a look in case this does not work out. Grateful for more details - Thanks, Tony.
