that's the way mate!

 

I have had to step back for a few days, got something in my eye and it's got really bad now.

Fab progress pal!

Well a bit more done today, yesterday I thought I'd have a bit of a chill out day really.

 

Rear subframe is off and I'm almost ready to start fully welding in the rear heal board, just need to do a bit more safety roping and then off I go! :)

I've got this to come.....

 

Can't decide whether or not to fit the whole panel in one go or do it in halves...

 

Good work!

Personally I'd do it in one go Ben and then butt weld up the central join when you take the subframe back off.

I have been super paranoid with regards to it not mounting straight, luckily enough there is a bit of flexibility in the horizontal axis as the rubber (poly in this case) mounts allow the rotation to be not much of an issue, but the left and right positioning is obviously critical.

I can't see how you'd have anymore trouble doing it all at once over one side at a time Ben anyway :)

Ah you've welded the back seat back in...... Took me awhile to find that piece and even more so to find the central support bracket!! But I have a feeling you did the rear seat awhile ago and I've just noticed hehe.... All the same good work cliff as usual

Cheers j

Deary me James, think we will have to give you a mini crash course to start you back off again  .

Can't argue with the rum binge though, Whiskey or Rum seems to go down well with me better than anything :).

 

When can we expect an update on your tea blue J ?

[jpw1275]

Think I do need a crash course lol.... I'm hoping to have something done for the weekend...:0)... If not before..... Mmmm teal blue.... I may have another blue up my sleeve now.....;0).... But can't say much at this stage

Cheers j

I know I'm no longer carrying on with this project, but I've still got the Galvanised test pieces I put outside many years ago now.

 

After a finger wipe off they are STILL going strong!!

 

 

 

Just a nice conclusion to end on I think :)

 

Cheers,

Cliff
