<dd>Hi<br>
<dd>I have a mid 49 80 inch, which is a basket case. It had a perkins P3
diesel fitted, with a steel conversion plate to match the original
gearbox. It fitted onto the standard chassis engine mounts. I still have
the engine, and gearbox(ring pull) but they have not run for many years.
The perkins P3 is a 3 cyli! nder diesel, (not the fastest of vehicles,
but interesting). It all fitted very neatly into the 80, with only a
small modification to the bell housing for the starter motor. <br><br>
