MG TD TF 1500 - Trying to trace my TF's original XPEG engine!!!

Hi all.

Its a bit of a long shot I know,but its worth a go!
First let me say that I am in the UK.
Trying to trace my cars original engine.
XPEG849.
Earlier this year I bought a 1954/5 mgtf1500 to restore,that a previous owner had nicked the engine out of for his TC.
The original importer/owner in 1997,was a Mr G Edwards of Hadleigh,Suffolk.
Who he sold it on to I dont know,but I bought it from a Mr M Evans from Wapley near Bristol,who thinks he bought it in around 2008.
He put it in his barn along with the other 30+ cars of his collection awaiting its restoration.
He got it without an engine from an owner who put the engine in his TC.
It would be intersting to find the engine and any info about its past,current status or current owner of the car its in.
You can Email me with any info you think may be of use.

Cheers Dave,,,aka "pilkie"
