Hi everybody, just to introduce myself. Picked up my steel from Handy Andy today with a view to building a car using the 2 litre Pinto engine I've just bought. No great rush as its a joint project with my son who's at Uni studying Motorsport Engineering so hopefully we'll see a swing in the project responsibility from me to him! Look forward to speaking to many of you as we hit the inevitable problems. Bye for now, Neil.

Good evening Neil,

Welcome to the friendly forum, I am quietly confident you will get answers to all you roadster questions and more on here. Just ask.

I to used to be a bike man but don’t think I will bounce any more, nice to know we have someone to keep law and order.

Cheers Ginge

A very good welcome to the forum Neil.....You've got yourself a very good start there with your chassis pack. All the best with your build and as i'm sure you've seen this is the place to come when you're pulling your hair out - which shouldn't be too much.....

All the Best....AndyH

Welcome to the forum Neil,

It was a pleasure to meet you yesterday & hope that the photos that you took will help further down the build process, as others have said, this forum is a huge help to all builders.

I wish you well with your build & look forward to seeing pictures of your progress

cheers
andy
