6 cylinder diesel transplanted into DDN Major with home-made bonnet! Not a pretty sight.

It seems to have the original 6 cyl aluminium oilpan without any kind of extra frames to support the engine gearbox area. The frontaxle A-support is propobly turned over to the front of axle and all stress is taken by the front end of the engineframe. Wery bad engine change work on this one.

EDIT: I moved this post into this thread. Oscar
This is a "made-up" Roadless 6/4, the front tomb stone is off a later 1000 series Ford.
