Hi
still progressing slowly
any way made up some exhaust headers and got good clearance around stuff i will get them remade in stainless
once i get the motor to turn key stage

Thanks Mick
i also got the engine mounts done rhs box with crush tubes
and new HT brake master cylinder fb ek pedal box and HTKG break away steering column bracket sorted
will chuck up some more pics soon

looks like the hard parts out the way there mate

good job

cheers
Nathan

Thanks Nathan it did take a few days on and off of cutting and welding them to get them right
also got the radiator in a good spot I had to recess it into the support bar a bit
because ive got the motor forward a bit more so I can run the column shift auto set up but its all coming together now
feels like im getting somewhere at least

Nice work Jay, does not look like it was fun...

aahhhh your right there Brett but I reckon first drive with the plates on I will forget all that sort of stuff

never has a truer word been spoken

I have moved the front mounted rack down level with the pivot pins on the crossmember
and according to my bump steer measure stick thingo majig I have zero bump steer at ride hight

Sweeeeeett




We need LOTS of dimensions , pics and info pleeeeeeezzzzeee

yeah no worries blacky I will put the measurements up once I get it welded up
not just tacked in

got my hoodline from the trimmer today need to put my seat belts in then I can fit it up
and put the wind screen side back windows in and doors back on carpet and door rubbers in
fuel and brake lines some wirring ahh list is gettiiiiiing smaller

have tried a few different door trim design's and came up with this one has the wood in between the chrome and will probably put
a eh front gaurd special badge down the bottom at the front just above the chrome strip when I find 4
i will be using the same colour vinly as per the seats and arm rests that I made (cut down front one)
the colour of the mdf board im using is close to the seat colour so it gives you an idea on how it will look minus the tape
still need to pull the vinly tighter on the arm rest aswell


also some pics of the front end with the Rack brackets and engine mounts on
