Default hit a wall

Hi all sorry no update for a while the chassis is no further forward as yet due to two things

1. I put my back out so bending over was out of the question.

2 The most annoying part of all I went with my Thai friend to pic up the donor and it was gone no sign of anybody to talk to.

My friend phoned the woman up who was selling it as she said her husband had died ,when he asked where was the car she replied the owner came and took it away. So in essence the lying old bag was trying to sell a car that was not hers to sell :x :x

So I am back to the drawing board as to where to get a front and rear hubs diff and drive shafts from.

I have managed to find someone selling a rear diff from a merc 220 with drive shafts but no hubs

so at this point apart from the diagonals and other top rails. I cant start on the rear part of the chassis .

I may have to look at a hybrid between the Haynes chassis and the Ron champions chassis as a solid rear axle is easier to obtain.
