I did exactly the same thing I used 3 mm Ali for floor and tank I used 3/16 rivets and sika I used countersunk rivets on the edge where the side panels go I am hoping the panels will go over

Queer thing is Andy my current Ebay feedback is 999 ....me thinks something devilish is going on:D :D
mg you should be ok as long all the dimensions are correct but it will be close, which is what you want anyway:D

Started on pipework today and got some p clipped inside the trans tunnel
the ally I'm using to mount p clips to is a corner strengthener that plasterers use
I cut along the apex to give me two flat bits.
I purposely left the nearside floor off to make fitting the pipes easier

This is what I love about this forum, the ingenuity!

Will have to have a word with my cousin (a master plasterer) about getting some of that, the greatest form of flattery is imitation! ;)

good progress today....have just about completed the petrol and brake pipe mounting throughout the trans tunnel, got a bit busy on that side so decided to mount the loom clips on the other side....will be getting the other floor on later today
I did manage to do the trans tunnel with just 10 fixings

complicated bending near the diff mount


one of Sylvains flexy lines was easy to hop over the fuel feed/return

I reckon Chapman would have been proud of that one Kev:)

Very neat installation Kev, it is brilliant (and looks good :) )
Just a question: why the central brake line has to cross the fuel lines? Why haven't you routed the fuel lines all the way on top of the brake line, which would have been routed all the way on the lowest part of your ally strip? It would also have allowed a larger curve-radius on the bend of the brake line to turn around CP14 and connect to the tee-piece.
But I'm sure there is a reason ;)

Liking the progress Kev

Mmmm....might try to swap those around Sylvain or at least top one for bottom one.....got the diff area all p clipped off
rob....I will list everything that I have used as a part off at the end of my build and the list will be quite comprehensive





plastic clips pop riveted on to hold loom in place

I have had a little rethink regarding my pipework down the trans tunnel.....not having the diff or handbrake cable mounted meant my guesswork regarding them was way out, so I have reworked them to clear the above items, one pipe I had to feed through the diff bracket which worked out quite well and I have moved the brake pipe down to the bottom to stop from crossing over as Sylvain pointed out, so here are the new trans tunnel pipework photo's
