Scooby getting top end engine rebuild

Finally got my overheating diagnosed with a head gasket fault so had to bite the bullet and get it fixed. Can't wait to get the car back.

DO get the block split and at the very least, a new set of bearings.

Scoobs have a habit of eating the bottom end just after headgasket failure:

And if you think headgasket is expensive.....
