Got myself another 3 days :)

New withbone brackets fitted and now fittng all new outriggers and chassis rails. I have 2 more days, so I should be finished with welding for the time being. I will give it another shotblast and start rust proofing and painting, the chassis will be old english white.

Chassis nearly repaired, at least the holes anyway...

The chassis is looking like n aerial shot from Google, a knitted network of folded metal resembling fields. As you can see, I have offered up new wishbone bracket with 3 sets of holes for adjusting suspension. I now hve to place in the correct position and weld in place.

And another TWO days of working on car!

Started work on the chassis rail, and have managed to get alot done. It was quite interesting cutting and stitching the pieces of steel together. It all feels very strong and now looking forward to finishing this part and moving on to the outriggers.

I'm on a roll, now...

Another few patches done, so thats all the easy ones sorted. Just started cutting one of the templates that will make up the 2 sides of the chassis rail. Once I have finished this side, hopefully putting some strength back in, I will patch the inside.

Actually got a lot of welding done today...

Today was a good day, probably should have started earlier but I am very happy that I welded in 7 patches. This means that I can now turn the chassis over and do the more difficult patches that require cutting around certain brackets.

A job to look forward to...

I was a bit bored, so i thought I would have a look at how I will make the floor up.

If you look through an older post, you will see a rusty bulkhead that I am going to make out of ply. It will be great to make something and improve on the original metalwork. 

More ideas to steal.

Some of these items I have already, the gearknob I will have made and the others are just more pictures I have come across that i will include on the build along the way.
