I love the last scene of it leaping off a bank into the river.
I bet if you could hear the sound, it would have coughed and spluttered and only just dragged its self out after that

Wonder if it's the one that DonMcDazzle on here has?
He doesn't have a build thread on here but over on oldschool.co.nz he does
http://oldschool.co.nz/2011/forum/index ... onmcdazzledoesn't show plate number thoguh but he might see this and comment

as for the jump into the water: I did a similar thing a couple of times last weekend in mine. has a dirty 202 which sucked in a fair bit of water. seems quite well waterproofed electrically, though
Surprised it didn't bend a conrod (that I know of)

That's what I was thinking too, reasonably common conversion
Neighbour had a series 3 swb with a 3b and it was actually bloody good
