[monsterob]

hi just basically wanted to big up handy andy !

one of his kits arrived at my house on wednesday at 5:30 i unpacked it and it looked great.


got cracking after work on thursday and this is how i ended after the evening



spent a few more hours on it tonight



and you all know u cant resist !




just goes to show handy and is actually quite handy !

and thanks to my mate (also) andy for help and support !

Nice work Rob,before you go any further the upright on the left of the pedal box/where your feet go is in the wrong place it needs to go to the left.

Classic mistake made by many, myself included.

Good luck.

That is a cracking bit of progress

Sitting in the chassis going brum, brum, brum in only 2 day's, how cool is that

That is the advantage of the flat pack chassis route

WOW Thats fantastic progress Rob, if you keep this pace up you,ll be finished before me

Thanks for your kind words, I,m just pleased that you are enjoying building the chassis,

The part that Paul ( Flyerncle) is referring to is part U7, tho it all depends on the size of the gearbox being fitted to its position.

Keep up the great work & keep the in progress photos coming.

Did you go "Brum Brum" sat in the drivers seat?

Pass on to your mate Andy......does he want a Roadster now? LoL

cheers
andy

i have them there at the moment as im not sure how much clearance i have for my gearbox. u7 and u8 and sb4's are only in temporary atm until i can get my engine and box and diff mounted.

andy says he wants to do a cossie transit van before a roadster and its cheaper to watch me do it !

[flyerncle]

I had fully welded U7 (thanks Mr Flatpack)so it was a head scratcher when I tried to fit the pedal box,quick call to Handy sorted it.

thats excellent Rob, too many Andy's in your post though - we'll have to have a big and small Andy, height though nothing else.....

Looking really good, got to get a crash hat like your welding mask will look the part when blasting around the country lanes.

Knowing you Rob you will soon have a rolling chassis, think you've already got it all planned out on all your bits of paper.

Well Done.....AndyH (Big)

yeah sorry for bending your ear at stafford spud ! was great to get it all ironed out

we shall say my andy is "fat" andy leaves tall andy to you and handy andy !

ive already got the crash hat for my bike

but its matt black i suppose i could get it airbrushed to match the welding lid it gets enough looks as i blast past or at the lights .

having a break now for the weekend got some house jobs to do but i may get out there again at some point
