Looking good, glad to see you have attached things like your rad brackets at such an early stage. it's 'orrible when you paint something then have to weld on it again and ruin the paintwork.

Enoch,

Luckily we had gus's chassis to copy all the additional brackets from that I needed. The only thing left to weld on will be a plate with the vin number on.

:eek: I,ve got a 3 yr old too...thanks for the tip to avoid biscuits , my little lad was sat in mine the other day too, using the indicator stalks like he was pumping up a bicycle tyre :eek:

Roll cage looks really nice on the chassis, nice proportions if that makes sense.

Look forward to more pics as you "build her up".

cheers
andy

great looking chassis but arn't you missing RP1 and RP2?

Andy,

My little lad does the same thing with the stalks. He also pulls the gearstick backwards & forwards, and rips the handbrake up while making a screeching noise!!

I dread to think how his mother drives!! lol. Bet she blames me.

Cheers

My wife put our 6yr old on the bonnet of one of my cars a few months back, I was not best pleased even though the bonnet is scrap.

The 2.5yr old has ripped wiper blades of my headlamp wipers on two cars...

But they are enthusiastic :rolleyes:

TT

Deanno,

I will be using the grp rear tub eventually so do not need RP1 & RP2. Well spotted though.

Progress Update
 

Well it's been a while since I posted any updates, so thought I best get out of the garage and upload some pictures.

With christmas & my birthday having just gone the fairies have been busy dropping of parcels. So far I have finished the engine coolant, and breather systems. Fuel system complete, horn fitted, brake flexi's, calipers rebuilt etc etc. Loom from Premier Wiring has also arrived.

Deal of the week has to be the 16" alloys I got. Set of four, with only two tyres, but I can source the other two some cheap enough. Got them off a friend at work for £40. They need a repaint, but I will put them through our sand blaster at work. Lucky for me we have got a job in at the moment using 2pk traffic black paint. Guess what colour I wanted my wheels?

Below are a few pics for you comments.

Cheers

Dave

Now that looks very nice indeed :cool:

I really like your full cage , is it removable? can/could it be retro fitted?

Sounds like a bargain on the wheels ....getting like me :D

Nice work Dave .

cheers
andy

Andy,

The cage is held in by 18 bolts. With a little bit of work it could be retro fitted. If you can build a car fitting the cage should be no problem.

Cheers

Dave
