Thanks Bob i am.If u have any advice while building do feel free,specially on the sva side which changes next year :angry: .Have got a draft copy.Looking through them alot of it sounds like common sense and is it really that bad.Everyone seems to paint a black picture about it.May have the same prob that u had.Part built when bought and no evidence of the donor car etc.Do you have to build the car first to get a chassiss number before the sva.Any help appreciated. Andy |

Hi Andy, When you send off your SVA application don't tick the part built box, tick a new build this will save you time and many many letters. I did tick the box and after a phone call and explaining that I had stripped the car down and then altered the chassis they classed it as a new build. regarding the chassis number I made mine up, an alpha numeric one with numbers no-one else would use, I used my army number and DVLA accepted it. If you want some pics of the body build I can supply which should help with your build diary. Regards Bob |

Hi Ratchet, I'm all new to this malarky, and when I got the body off my car today, I wondered why one of the rear supports didn;t have supporting plates to the side . Then I see this shot of your car, (From the rear, unpainted) and it seems the same. Can you/anyone explain why that's the case please? Eric |

If it is the picture of the rear,and it is the one on the back left corner.It is due to the roll bar which has the loop and a cross section to that mount point.If you wanted one like a westfield which has the two bars straight back which most have.Then you will need a extra mounting fitting.It is just the way it has been designed.Looking at the photos of your car it has a differant roll over bar. |
