				No he offered it me over the phone, told me that it was a bargain and that if I did not buy it he was going to get it re-built and put it in a buggy

				A RD 400 crank should be a doddle to rebuild, the 350 and 400 cylinders will interchange but it is not practical, the 400 cylinder is much longer and the height needs to go on the top of the cylinder
