Default Had to tell!

Ok So it doesnt seem like much but my attitude has spun a whole 180 degrees from what it was last week im now raring to go! even too the step to order the nose cone and scuttle for the Andys in my own rather strange way this feels like a bigger milestone than getting the chassis rolling because i know its all got to come to bits for the powder coaters eventually.

Yay me

Lol

not really Andy only you 2 up there actually "know" what it will come out like having looked at the sampler me im just hoping its as close as you boys say

anyone know how "clean" a chassis needs to be for a powdercoaters is a coat of paint ok or does it need to be bare metal


You'll be ok TT I had the same problem at the rear and it felt insurmountable at the time as id measured and measured and measured before welding but still managed to get it 4mm off.
