Good luck with your build, yes keep the photos coming, we all like pictures :cool:

If you bought the book 3 yrs ago, make sure you are aware of the amendments, the wishbone lengths etc.

all the best

Stan,

Any time buddy.

How have you managed to tack the chassis together on that really white build table and keep it so clean?

My build space is a tip at the moment with nearly finished chassis fighting for space with an engine, nose cone, freshly painted parts etc etc.

Cheers Ginge

Hi Stanko..........may I ask if your chassis was a precut chassis kit or did you cut it yourself then tape it all together?

just been looking at the photos, the tool board & work table is far too tidy :D

enjoy your build.

cheers

HandyAndy, I have cut it myself with small angle grinder at my workplace(shhhh my boss is listening) and tape it for transporting home. cut them 1-2 mm longer so I can file them to correct lenght.
