To be honest Andy

It was meeting all of you good folks at Stoneleigh that gave me the burning desire to restart my buid. ;)

I was lucky enough to see Spikehaus's build in the flesh a short while ago, that gave me an even bigger kick up the ass :D
It made me realise that I am not too far behind his progress & in fact, most of the hard work is done. :cool: :)

Jobs left to do !!??

Cut & weld little squares to cap all of the open ends of the chassis tubes

Make & fit CP17

Weld the round bits to the end of the headlamp stalks

Finally have a good re-read of the book to make sure that I have not missed anything

Ohhh & find out where CP9 & CP25 plates go !!??
May have used them allready but to be honest bu**ered if I know :o :D

Once I have done that little lot, preperation ready for the primer & topcoat :cool:

i believe CP9 & CP25 go in the rear tub area, bracing bits for uprights of the rear tub, i say i believe as i don,t need them with the Triton tub. ;) :)

Cheers Andy

Whilst I am on here.

I am looking for the general dimensions of Fabbys nosecone

Having obtained a Nissan Micra radiator today it is looking a tad too tall :confused:

To be exact, I am wanting to know the height of the noscone above the front frame / top rails & how far forward the radiator can come out from the bottom of the front frame without hitting the inside of the lower part of the nonescone !!?? :confused: ;)

If the radiator is suitable, I can then fabricate the radiator mountings. That will be one less area of paintwork to damage :o
