The rams should be ok still, the oil cooler may be ok too. The motor covers will be toast but the head and block may still be ok. The pumps are un-known, there is no real ppath for oxygen to get in there to give a really intense fire. The pump may just need a set of seals.With that said, you would only buy it for parts! It would cost you far too much to repair. My 743 that had an engine bay fire ended up costing me the best part of 11K to fully restore. Plus an awful lot of time!!!! Radiator was 600 (1,400 brand new), fan shroud was 400 odd. Engine was about 1,800 (5-6k new) Thats just a few items you will need to get her going again!. Then gauges/instrument panel/seat/bushings.If i lived over there i would probably take a stab at it just for parts.</blockquote>
