Reeet here yer go I have just this minute decided to offer 5 complete body kits and a pair of the finest seats any bum could sit on for a mere £999 posted per body kit/seats.......the snaggy bit is it's not going to last long and it's only for 5 sets.
Body kit is 13 piece affair and obviously there would be two seats in any weirdy colour you fancy.

This is my daft bit to aid the credit crunchy hit builders and also help me get my damn project going before it takes root and I can't move it.

Applies to folk over the wobbly bluish brown bit but postage comes into play a bit as carriers like legs and arms for that......:eek:

Is this offer available with the new style bonnet and nose and does the "13 piece bodykit" include an aeroscreen? or is this wishfull thinking :o

either way think im gonna hav to talk to the boss (future wife!) coz thats a superb offer :)

if i can build a chassis maybe i can make a wedding dress and use the money i saved for a nice set of bodywork and seats :p

Me too Mark :confused:

That is one, outstanding special offer :cool:

Too much quarter left at the end of the money for me :(

I could allways sell my trusty old Trasit tipper ............ Ummm....... now there's food for thought :D

If all continues to plan i'll be taking a few off you Mark but not for a few months yet.....

MightyMouth
2nd July 2009, 07:54 PM
I seriously considered it but I don't really have anywhere to store the stuff and am no where near ready and though I could swing the cost it would leave me short for other stuff I can use now so have had to pass this time.

2nd July 2009, 09:00 PM
I dont realy have the money for it, no where near ready for it and havent decided on a colour. But what sold it to me was that the saving is going to pay for a set of shocks...?

fabbyglass

Not moaning just thought maybe it's a sign that the credit crunch has finally reached down to "toys" and that other avenues need looking into..:confused:

I never imagined myself willing to spend almost a grand on bodywork and seats, but i must admit, from looking at all the pics ive seen of the fibreglass stuff, i really think ive been swayed after looking at spud69's cars pics and think that i may end up giving fabby some more buisness:D Well ive been buggin my parents to give me the extra cash, which hopefully will happen:o , however i just had a few Q's. ON the rear panel, what mods need to be done to the chassis, as i read on the forums somewhere that i wont need rp1 and rp2, but wasnt sure what else. Also does the scuttle just replace all the stuff shown on top of page 99 in the book(revised edition)? I also hope to have a rolling chassis whithin 2 or 3 weeks:D , but still have alot to do to get to that stage.

£900 is £900 well spent when you can just unwrap it and bolt on ;)

i made my ali side pannels and rear tub and wish i had just got them off fabby. i couldnt be arsed mucking around making an ali bonet the other day so the phone was picked up and a nice shiney black one turned up the following week. job done.

fabbyglass
18th July 2009, 12:59 PM
Takes me a week or so to make a full body set and a pair of seats so as an idea on time scales etc if 30 odd folk are aiming to have built cars by Stoneleigh then some won't be on the road as you need time to fit it and finish the car then of course pass IVA.

Bonzo
18th July 2009, 01:10 PM
I'd best be getting me finger out when you put it like that Mark :eek:

Where are those two lads of mine !!?? I need to get them cutting up some logs ( I don't mind if the lads get wet ) :D

Got the wood, got the orders, all I need is some muscle power :confused:

I'll do the hard work & deliver them :D

fabbyglass
18th July 2009, 03:33 PM
Not sure how long it takes to get an IVA date and didn't mean my last post to sound like "buy it now or else" I just wanted to point out these things take time and time runs away with you(well it does for me..:confused: ) and all of a sudden it's the beginning of May and Stoneleigh show time again..:eek:

I think most firms doing Roadster stuff would struggle to make that many body kits in such a short space of time no matter how welcome the money would be.

We are almost in August and time ticking away and before we know it "it's CHRISTMAS" as Noddy would say.....:eek:

geeman
18th July 2009, 03:39 PM
Hi, i should hopefully get the funds to buy a full fibre glass kit very soon, I hope, and still wondered what needs to be done at the rear of the car, as i havnt quite finished it and havnt yet made rp1 and rp2 so just wondered what needs to be done there. Thanks

Never even thought of that post in that way

It was a very welcome reminder of just how much and how fast time passes during the build. :eek:

I re-started my build about a month ago, was fully expecting to be where I am now in a couple of weeks !!??

Goes like this. Have breakfast, make a mental list for the day. go out to the workshop & spend an hour looking for stuff ;) Make some measurements, roll a fag, drink some tea, re-measure because I have forgotten what they were :D
That is where my days go to and why I get, not a lot done :o

AshG

your the same as me ronnie. the list in my head of things to do in a day usually takes two days after thinking time and tea/food pit stops.

At least I am not as bad as my little brother :eek:

He'll stand there, think about the task in hand, have a smoke, drink some tea, spend an age taking measurements, have another think. cut the part & it dont fit :D " what the hell is up with this measure " is usually said :rolleyes:

Brilliant Tig welder though, best alloy tig welder that I have seen to date :cool:
