Many thanks

Richard

Thanks for the help it all suddenly becomes clear . . . ish

Hi Richard,

You will see my Roadster with the GRP rear tub & the aforementioned chassis framework when you collect your chassis kit , take photos if you wish etc, its all very easy once you have the steelwork ;)

cheers

Making progres
 

Got my tube kit on sunday and got cracking

all tubes falling nicely into the jig with handy andy's excellent and very reliable flat pack kit.

coming on well now with most of the top frame attatched and the seat backs done with a mixture of tacks and half welds all round

soon going to be time for fully welding right round

:mad: why is it every reasonably priced doner car seems to be 200 plus miles away

never ming guess i'll just keep looking and hoping

me again
 

Got a flickr account now so photo's can be viewed and commented upon etc.

see url in signature for a look will try to keep it reasonably up to date
