![]() At least you got a decent deal on the chassis steel
![]() ![]() I was recently quoted £120 for the box section ![]() Steel prices are usually quite volatile, luck of the draw where you live & local demand.

![]() Just given metal supermarket a ring. They are quoting £25.30 for 1000x500mm of 3mm thick mild steel plate. So they seem to be the same price as FM Steelstock are charging.

![]() Well i started making the chassis plates an hour ago, i've got 5 done so far. It really doesn't take very long and is quite satisfying. Only another 20 chassis plates (not including multiples) + jigs and other plates to cut!

![]() I'm not sure if they still do.
IIRC Jason has left, so no-one else bothered to do the chassis packs, I would imagine that extended to the wishbone jigs as well. Could be wrong though
