JCB 525-S Loadall seized engine.

Just bought this Loadall for cheap for a bit of a side project. It's main problem is the "slightly" overheated and seized engine, other than that she looks a bit rough but has had all the pins and bushes done recently and has 80% tyres. Also the engine was rebuilt about 1500 hours ago so everything is pretty mint inside apart from the pistons and liners so I figure I should be able to get away with a relatively cheap rebuild unless anything is too warped out of shape, as you can see it's been rather toasty!!

    More carnage! Gotta say it was a good effort to keep punishing it for that long
