Big day
please accept my apologies for this thread but just had to tell someone that my chassis ( rolling ), with steering & full suspension fitted will see daylight for the very first time tomorrow, i,m like a big kid with the excitement of it all .
the chassis will be taken out of the garage so that i can have a mega tidy up & dismantle the build table, you won,t believe how much stuff (Roadster related ) is stored under the table, so need to clear the space for the chassis to be rolled back into the garage backwards so that i,ve got the engine end at up over garge door end to aid when need to fit engine, tho thats a while off yet. sorry for boring you to sleep but its a big day for me & my build. hopefully photos will be posted tomorrow evening on the forum. i hope the weather is kind to me cheers andy

Thanks Adrian,
yes i,ll be glad when engine goes in, as sick of banging my head on it , its in a cradle stand so its about 3 ft from the ground & i,m always banging into it, does this sound familiar to anyone ? tho my chassis is rolling, its far from ready for fitting out, as i,m basically fitting everything that is needed to put it on its wheels , to check every thing fits etc then it,ll be stripdown time for chassis painting, i,ve also still got some brackets to weld on yet, headlight brackets/ rad / brake line etc tomorrow is basically the first stage of rolling chassis. i,ll take lots of photos for my build log i,d love to know what the first thing the neighbours say to themselves.... "what the bloody ell is that????" springs to mind. cheers andy

Quite apt that your newborn could take its first steps on Fathers Day!
Good luck mate and enjoy today. Have sympathy for me - I am at Curborough watching a load of Westfields do a sprint.
