And now... should I fully weld it, or make rear suspension framework...
Chassis is bolted/welded to build table, so in my opinion it would be better to fully weld it now, then make rear framework, and in the end - weld suspension brackets...

I also made bucket's insert - for electrolysis cleaning (front calipers, maybe upright/hubs):

Another Saturday...

First, I got my Birthday present - mainly form myself, but my "other half" had her contribution in it. Now I'm ready to take care after all this nuts ;-)


I also picked up Fiat Cinquecento seats - bought some time age for... about £10. Naturally seats are too wide, but... I need only runners, which are very easy to modify (only one bar/tube). Universal runners alone cost more than this whole seats...


So, first task was to separate runners form seats...


Few minutes later...

On Thursday I picked upa GRP seats for "client". As my seats will be same but 50mm wider (these are 39cm wide so they are tight), I can plan where I need my runners.






I also made steering support frame...

Finally I couldn't resist to trial fit some components:




Because I didn't want to start something bigger - I prepared tubes and welded pedals...


Next I will fully weld chassis, before I move it forward to weld rear suspension frame...

Today I got my MKIndy inspired laser cut rear uprights:





And... my first SolidWorks finished project - seat mounting plate:

Not sure if you've realised yet, but your chassis has a major design flaw...






Steering wheels on the wrong side :eek: :D

Looking great, especially like the rear upright design. Should be super strong!

Damn, I knew it's something wrong with this angles ;)
I have spare steering column so I can weld second on the other side ;)

Another small step to happiness:

I drill/cut holes for master cylinder...


And fit "custom" CP15 to steering column support:




Of course I have problem with clearance between steering column and TR9, so I will finish it when I get column bearing (maybe friday/saturday).

After long battle, yesterday I picked up column bearing... PFL205 housing + UC205 bearing:
