I deleted my post as I wanted to check your photos in more detail & make sure I was giving you correct info, wish I had my book at home

will get back to you asap.

other than a poss prob with the front frame, can I ask if BR1 & BR2 are cut correctly? ( said with respect ),
what I mean is, when you marked out your build table did you mark out the position of the base rails THEN add 25mm forward for the front frame or did you include the 25mm of the front frame position?
sorry, i,m just bouncing my thoughts about here to try to solve the prob.

not doubting your work, just double checking possible hiccups.

cheers
andy

Can,t think of what to reply to that

Anyways.... now you can get cracking on your chassis & save what hair you,ve got left , LOL.

next bit to watch out for......... make sure the seat back angle is correct at 17degree,s , you,ll be thinking " I need another pair of hands" when doing the SB part codes

well done on getting your chassis into 3D, you,ll soon be sitting in the drivers area going Brum Brum ( we,ve all done it too )

cheers
andy

BUT, there was 44 mins between the thread being started & my first reply ( I wasn,t logged on, as I was busy cutting a chassis )

I,m only using a CVH engine so its a Brum Brum for me

cheers

Andy, go to your local collage and see if you can do an NVQ in the Haynes Roadster Chassis, because you would not have to revise!



Cheers Ginge
Just had a thought...............

I wonder if I could enter the "Mastermind Quiz" & have the Roadster chassis as my specialist subject ???

I really must get out more

cheers
