Why did you pull it to bit's then?
Sounds like a Dulux overhaul then........

to see what it is like and to get in good running condition.but it might be easy for some people that have an income to do these things but since i dont have any income i am trying to save as much money as possible.so im not going to buy gaskets and im going to shop around for bearings and seals and noe that i know that s1-s3 are the same that will make it easier

You started off saying that you were going to do a Restoration
Then you asked where to get gearbox kits from
And some people told you where to get them from.
It's up to you. Going by the photos i can see at least $ 8000.00
or better to get it up to rego. Corn flake boxes make good gaskets too......
