I think the full roll cage is a good idea and looks a far site better than my old top box holder.

I will put pics up of the electrics, scuttle, dash etc when I take them tonight.

Regards

Bob

I started the chassis work in November, but with work and other things it has taken me until the week before last to get it finished and powder coated, the remaining work so far has been done in 2 weekends, if I could take a week off I think I would finish it.

The thought of that Guinness from Steve is the driving force.

Hi All,

Another productive weekend on the rebuild

The ali sides are made and ready for painting
Front scuttle bulkhead made and fitted, (sorry about the colour)
Main electrical panel fitted into afore mentioned bulkhead
Dash made, just a little more wiring to do
Header tank fitted
Front bulkhead cover over the pedal box made so now the Brake reservoir is fitted as is the oil catch tank
Top coolant rail moved to below exhaust manifold
Tunnel top made and fitted which includes a glove compartment and remote switch gear (sorry about the colour again but I do like it)
Fuel tank and filler fitted

I will add some pics but I appologise for the quality, they all seem blurred

Regards

Bob
