Where did you purchase the engine and gearbox/transmission from? Was it a vendor or a website or what?

I purchased a complete rolling chassis from England, and exported it to my country in a container... I did all my best looking for the most expensive option!!

Sorry never actually shipped something from across the water that large. Did you just buy the chassis off of eBay or something and found a container and had a shipper pick it up and ship it?

I picked up my full kit from a local guy that brings a bunch of Rover stuff over from the UK.
I wouldn't buy anything used from overseas , especially from eBay, without having someone on the ground there to go over it.
This local guy had all the drive train inspected and tested before shipping it to me, and after doing the math, it wasn't any more expensive for me, as he fills containers, versus my two pallets.... Plus peace of mind, as he takes all the risks.
