Looks like a great project, most solid , and good head start , yes keep us posted , only advise crank must be hardened if need grind , make sure oilways aare totally clean, use standsrd thickness head gasket if , not skimmed, if skimmed. Use thick gaskets, pattern water pumps seal spring to strong. Use old spring, oil Pressure should be. 40 psi when hot ,, avoid high pressure pump, thats it for now thanks for sharing. ,
We used to to work on these in the garages, and now have one , yes just to explain water pump seal you can prise out the strong spring and something like a carburettor spring compare with old original pressure prevents failure, use good used gear shaft if possible and that goes for most parts I have found best because they are probably hardened, best to join stag owners club or look on website and look at top tips , a fine motor car ,
Looks like an excellent project. Start by wire brushing the underside and work you way up. Check the sills for integrity. Also do thorough inventory of parts. All the best in the endeavour.
Looks like everything is there. Get the paint and panel work out the way first seeing as it's in the correct state to sort it. Looking forward to the progress on your stag Cheers.
Hi that part you where asking about is a rear wheel arch repair for the car, maybe buy a part manual for a stag and it will help you see what you and don't have 😂 good luck with this, it hard coming in when the car been strip like it has for the respray 👍
I just checked but I think it’s off a totally different car! Very different profile and no side indicator! Thanks for the tip I just got a Leyland parts catalogue delivered, it’s about 2” thick and I think working out what is what could take a while!
good luck fella .

Hi It's the rear stag name plate on the rear of the car, not a indicator
