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  Untitled by stephen harborne, on FlickrClamped in place to check everything lines up  Untitled by stephen harborne, on Flickr Checking the fit of the nose cone  Untitled by stephen harborne, on FlickrI decided to add two new pieces to the chassis rather than drill through the existing chassis  Untitled by stephen harborne, on Flickr
