bit of good news today , sorted the 100 x 50 mm box section for the chassis rails so hopefully next week should have some bits cut.the box section is only 2mm thick wall probably a bit thinner than you would normally use but i am trying to keep the weight to a minimum and with the chassis being welded into the shell as it was originally it will be more than enough.theres going to be some serious engine setback in the frame (whole engine behind the front axle) and the shell will be body dropped over the chassis to get it as low as possible.i want that old custom look but with a bit of dtm racer thrown in if you get where im going.progress is slow but i guess it just takes time.
