It will be interesting to see how the standard engine and nose-cone fit in your chassis with the raised nose....(see the above photo) - presumably it would have to pass UNDER the front spring, but what about the front damper mounting?
Might not be a problem if the previous owner has chopped the nose-cone and done away with a starting handle.
Interesting project - good luck with it.
Just one thing... the steering arm on the right hand hub looks as though it has been bent upwards. This is perhaps the weakest link on an Austin Seven - they are prone to cracking so make sure it's sound.
