Subframe 99.9% Complete

Well, as you can see it is now 99.9% complete, the front bar is just to hold it solid until we have the turbo (need to buy another :-( ) to make the proper bar up.

When we are next working on it, it's going to be a weldathon to get all the tacks welded and strong, few gussets to do and then it'll be complete.

I'm selling my motorbike to fund the next bits - drive shafts, shock mounts etc etc. (GZ125 if anyone is interested??!!)

Subframe (Again)

So after a hiatus in proceedings we had a rethink and have gone back to the subframe. Ready to hang the engine to check clearances and then do the gussets on the rear and start the front bars (which are currently the straights coming forward).

Providing no distractions or complications it only should take a few more weekends to finish (fingers crossed).

Completed Doors



Both door are complete, and the final 'a' panel is on. Slight prep as you can see to do to the edges due to the crimper leaving a few unsightly marks.

Subframe - The Start

Well, the jig has been finished and lined up - put a brace bar in to make sure that nothing was out of place and made the first piece which was the bottom rear bar, was a good successful day and now we are in the swing of things it shouldn't take too long at all.
