Ivan Glynn and Stuart Glynn Get Burrell Finished. After lots of hard work and sweat the Burrell was complete. The launch of new engine on 28th of dec 2013 was a great day out with lots of photos and xmas drinks to celebrate. Many came from far and near to see the new engine and it didnt disappoint.
