Some progress.

Saturday. Having read off a local builder building a jig to chop the sump. An email was fired of and a quick ride across town see the top of the sump snipped of perfectly square. He then gave me the idea of building the short end up and running it back under the jig to make it square and equal to the rest. so another ride back an hour later, Thanks Martin.
The bottom was mabe out of the last of the steel from the locost floor.



Sunday. Having been dragged around Primark this morning I escaped to the garage after tea. I chopped up two pick up pipes and mocked it up with a fuel clip. When I got it where I wanted it I thought I would just get the tig out and join it up. Then I decided I would cut of the bracket and weld it on for suport.



Being nagged to come in, I thought I would just tack the bottom on, I got carried away and welded it around.
There is still one pin hole in the mig welding but the tig weld is good to go. Then I can test its oil tight.





Progress may get a little slower as ive taken on another wiring job that was offered a few weeks back, vag 20vt on a dta into a vw Caddy
