made myself a build board and painted white to show up the fine pen line i then marked out to the book spec on p34.
and as i thort almost evey tube is not where it should be
its out at the back and gets worse as you go to the front
ff1 turns out to be 9mm to far forward and offset to the offside and also not quiet the right length
br7 is 25mm to far forward and u1&2 ar fitted in the wrong place because of it
br1&2 are too long and im pritty sure thay ar not fitted at the same angle to br10 where the off set to ff1 is coming from br 10 is offset a bit off of center to
br8&9 are not inline withe the centerline
the bulkhead uprights are not fitted at 90deg to the br tubes but thats no biggy compared to the above.

the only thing for it is to start from scratch

anyone a wizz with ebay and paypal im thinking maybe it was a good move paying by credit card

now that you have more detailed info to what is incorrect on the chassis.....
You say the back end is out, is that just the 2mm extra length between BR10 to BR12 ?
Are the angles of the the seat back frame ( SB1 etc ) correct?

If so then you might be able to "save " the chassis by removing everything forward of BR10, maybe even re using some of the cut out tubing, & maybe having a new front frame, now that you have the build table all marked out you can then correct everything to book spec.

cheers
