![]() Next up was to mount the radiator to the chassis
I was originally going to use a spurious golf rad which was not great looking to be fair then coolex had nice ali rads for a polo for quiet cheap at the national kit car show so i picked one up I Got two brackets bent up for it to mount it to the chassis ![]() Clamped in place to check everything lines up ![]() Checking the fit of the nose cone ![]() I decided to add two new pieces to the chassis rather than drill through the existing chassis ![]()
