Here are some better images of the seat runners made from 50x100x3mm RHS. Not sure if these open channels will need strengthening but it is 3mm steel bolted to a steel seat and a steel floor through 4mm plate so probably not.
 Zip ties hold the seat down in position after defoaming the base for a lower sitting position.  Well that's the steering wheel positioned, and for my next trick...  It's hanging from various parts of the garage by weld wire! The things you find yourself doing late at night!  Last edited by CTWV50 : 19th April 2012 at 11:26 AM.

Nice progress pics there
 I might be wrong ( sorry if I am ) but from the photo your upper harness mounting points appear quite low in relation to your shoulders, maybe its just the angle of the photo but was just something that caught my eye . The seat belt anchorage is quite in depth from the IVA manual, They use a small block placed on the seat base then work from a fixed measurement from that, might be worth double checking sections 19 & 31 from the IVA manual. Again...just my opinion but unless you have very short arms  then the steering wheel looks close to your body, have you tried that position with the scuttle fitted yet ?keep the progress pics coming, its looking great cheers andy

 Distance piece not touching bottom of rule just to be sure.  Rolled it out at the weekend with steering supports tacked in place. Managed to get the upper column to run between the clutch and brake pedals below that troublesome top rail.   Last edited by CTWV50 : 25th April 2012 at 01:27 PM.

Last night I thought I'd have a go at modifying/completely remaking the exhaust. Well impressed with myself after an hour an half sweating.
   To be continued tonight!!  Last edited by CTWV50 : 25th April 2012 at 01:29 PM.
