A slightly dull update im afraid, I have been quite busy building a stratos chassis at work so no time to play

anyway

Washer bottle half made

Also won this item on ebay. I would have loved a 3 bar grill but the demand far too much money. This cost me £10 NOS item

And today have just won a 6 speed gearbox which i shall be trying to shoe horn into my tunnel

wish i had managed to get hold of it before i finished my tunnel

COLEYST200 · 26-04-2009, 07:24 PM

mate i love the work you are doing on this car hat of to you

rstirl · 26-04-2009, 08:11 PM

amazing project. id love to have your skills.

gonna be a lot of fun driving this to work!

Robs Frst · 27-04-2009, 01:03 PM

Very nice project

Zetecfiesta · 27-04-2009, 05:51 PM

you have some amazing fab skills! really like you car, cant wait to see some more updates on it.

pee vee · 28-04-2009, 04:34 PM

what gearbox is that you got hold of then Trout!?

mk1racer · 09-06-2009, 07:21 PM

Another small update. I have never been a fan of the capri coloumn solution so am using caterham parts again as they are nice and simple and quite versatile items so pics of the new coloumn to modify

and i have started thinking about drop links, this is it so far

And the start of the tension struts

and very loosely tried on to check bend etc on them, i may try and finish them 2moro after work

The many uses of a 100e inner wing

Thats it for today

Fudgey · 09-06-2009, 08:24 PM

bit more done then mate.

how come you are changing the columb? clearance issues?

mk1racer · 09-06-2009, 08:31 PM

I would just rather put a shiney new one on instead of a 30?? year old one on

mk1racer · 10-06-2009, 06:53 PM

pretty much finished mocking them up now

plenty of clearence around the wheel

started to look at th anti roll bar, I was going to try and run it through the exsisting tube at the front but there will be no room for a drop link unfortunately. This will need to be thought through again now

Thats all for now

cheers

Fudgey · 10-06-2009, 07:59 PM

nice update

cant you have the arb lower than the tca? or does it need to go above with a drop link, not a, err, lift link lol

mk1racer · 10-06-2009, 08:15 PM

i cant really put it that low as i dont want it so close to the road

Have kind of thought of another way to do it now anyway

mk1racer · 15-06-2009, 08:52 PM

I have decided on what to do anti roll bar wise now so have ordered some bushes to use. Untill they arrive i have started on making room for it to run

slightly more room for longer dorp links now

Just need to modify the ends to not get in the way of the wheel

Also after thinking id fucked up on the air box mount i had to chuck the bonnet on to check. Thankfully it only touches a small bit on the hinge mounting so will shave a little off it.

Also a stroke of luck my 106's rad fits between the hinges

I need to put a bit of tube in the hole i made for the arb to run through and then i need the bushes to arrive

mk1racer · 24-06-2009, 06:12 PM

more money spent

got a nice westfield heater through, i chose this mainly due to the size. It is a very small compact unit

And anti roll bushes arrived

Fudgey · 25-06-2009, 06:49 PM

cool. how much was the heater?

mk1racer · 01-08-2009, 08:36 PM

the heater cost about £50

A small update on the anti roll bar

firstly the blade end before cutting

all cut and tacked together, also had to shorten the roll bar slightly

roll bar mounts kind of getting there

mounts kind of in place

roll bar in place

Need to order some drop links now but am broke at the moment so they wont be bought for a while

TurboShed · 01-08-2009, 09:28 PM

Good thread well worth the read

Nice car

24vcossiemat · 01-08-2009, 10:32 PM

brilliant mate.. I cant wait to see this finshed, but seeing it being built is bloody awesome. this is where sites like this are well worth looking at. you don't see stuff like this in magazines.. well done fella

jonny s2 · 03-08-2009, 04:31 PM

Propper old skool cool,lots of great work will be watching this one

mk1racer · 29-09-2009, 07:08 PM

Very small update im afraid as i have been busy buying a house

done a little bit of work on ARB again, nearly there now just need to order the proper droplinks so ignore the thrown together affair thats on there now

i get paid 2moro hopefully so will get some proper droplinks ordered

also these, won the lights on ebay for 99p, then spent £25 on brand new land rover lights. Just deciding what colours i want the lenses, im thinking possibly having them all clear but smoking them to go with the final theme of the car. My brother is in charge of converting them to run LED's and also squashing all 4 of the required lights in the the 2 lenses

the lucky boy

thats all for now

Dan

mk1racer · 06-10-2009, 07:32 PM

Did a little bit more after work tonight, on the coloum mount. I wanted to use the original mounts as much as possible on this. But needed to redo it due to the pedalbox being in the way a bit and also my shiney new coloum

Need to tweek the position a little bit till its comfy, but fairly happy with it really. Also need to go and see my machinest mate to get him to knock something up to mount the wheel on the boss

Fudgey · 06-10-2009, 09:27 PM

looking good big man

Cragrat · 06-10-2009, 10:37 PM

er! WOW

bloody awesome build

m4tt274 · 06-10-2009, 11:02 PM

AquariousRS · 07-10-2009, 02:58 AM

Wow. Very envious of your skills. The thought going into it is awesome too

mk1racer · 10-10-2009, 08:23 PM

Another update today

spent the afternoon making some mounts and stuff so heres the pics

So starting with the wiper motor, and modified caterham mechanism

Brake pot mounted

Rad mounts kind of done, messed one of them up so need to redo it a little

Remote servo mounted

Under bonnet shot to make sure it all clears

Got bored later on so throw the panels on to make myself feel better about things

i may try and get the bulkhead finally welded up and smoothed off but will see how i feel

Dan

Fudgey · 10-10-2009, 10:40 PM

top bananna mate. had the 3dr out today for a bit of pissing about.

got fucked off tho as i just cant stop the from brake tee leaking.

its now for sale...

COLEYST200 · 10-10-2009, 11:38 PM

i love this build

CarbonRick · 11-10-2009, 08:08 PM

I like it alot, wish I hadn't got rid of one I picked up cheap,
though wasn't in as good a condition. Top work!

jammerrs · 11-10-2009, 09:09 PM

the fabrication is simply amazing

however cant help but think a metal airbox and minilights would make it look better

mcfeat2005 · 15-11-2009, 01:33 AM

top build mate keep the pictures coming.

marky_g · 15-11-2009, 08:25 AM

love lookin at the progress on this is a credit to you mate

mk1racer · 09-01-2010, 10:07 PM

Well a very small update, house is taking a fair bit of time right now so no time for it. Anyway done a few little bits. Redone my pedalbox a bit as i wasnt happy. heres some pics of stuff

steering coloumn lower support

Sat in place, have decided to put it the other way around, so will have the joint in the engine bay out the way

Finally got the car on the spit this evening also, slightly dodgy thing to do on your own buts all good now

Need to finish off the underside so that i can get it all blasted, show all the really crap bits up better for me to fix

105Ian · 10-01-2010, 11:04 AM

Fantastic fabrication skills and very well thought out ideas , going to be something special when this is done

Charlie Chalk · 10-01-2010, 12:54 PM

Looks the bollocks, Been a while since I last looked in here.. Keep it up

Zetecfiesta · 10-01-2010, 02:19 PM

just re read the thread and its amazing!

Fudgey · 10-01-2010, 09:23 PM

nice one fella

ill be attempting to fit a bathroom next weekend, and the 3dr action has been very slow of late, and its too fricking cold to piss about...

mk1racer · 10-01-2010, 10:07 PM

If i wasnt up at autosprout next weekend id have come and given you a hand

good luck with it

mk1racer · 17-05-2010, 10:26 AM

Right then, some new pics. Not very exciting but at least it is a little bit of progress :biggrin2: Have started cleaning up the floor to see what needs repairing and replacing. So far both sills which i was going to do anyway, both rear arches, both rear corner pieces and a couple of chassis outriggers which i have cut off. I will be removing the jacking points as i dont have the right jack for them anyway, I will replace them with a more substantial jacking point for a normal jack.

remains of outrigger

The front end which i have started cleaning up properly to see what its like, and for 50 years old its bloody good underneath all the crap :thumbsup:

Need to get on with it quickly now as i may be buying another house very soon. Offers going in today :laugh2:
