I got a copy of the receipt for the rebuild. Work was done by Melvin Automotive and the total price was around $1,500. Yes $1,500. If anyone is interested, I can send it to you.

<div>I bought a complete FE long block with internals in good shape a few years ago for the fair price of $500.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I’d say a bare block with no crank is probably only worth $100-$200.<br>

Householder, with his great breadth and depth of knowledge of early Triumphs, correctly identified Austin Davis in the photo I posted that was taken at the May 19-20, 1956 Cumberland National. The story of Austin Davis is quite interesting and you may want
to read the article I wrote about him several years ago. The article appeared in the Vintage Triumph Register, the TRA Register newsletter, and TR Action magazine UK. I would like to continue with recognition of women who raced Triumphs. I am attaching two
