Right well the day started at about 8.30AM for me with more mocking up and preping then a small road trip well 2 miles to Daves house to get his welder then i could get going with the welding .

FIRST OFF DROP THE CAGE











That was all the photos i tuck till Sam got here and he started snapping like a paparazzi photograher





Then for the welding that would be on the under side roll the shell and use the cage so i could weld it all up job done

cheers mate i will maybe ill be able to help next time lol

 

Iv been at it again today and its not gone to bad



I got one of the dash bords in which is just being used to get it to fit as now i can see were i can make it fit better this is were i will use my second dash to get the fit right befor i send it of to be flocked



Under the dash iv got the standerd dash frame to fit which is only being used to hold the dash and the steering column and i will be putting some bracing into to make it a bit stronger as iv had to cut the rear of the tube out



As iv not had the time to get to custom cages to get some more tube so iv used some plastic pipe to see were i can get the tube that will link the two window/door barrs togever and it will fit like it has lived there all its life





All so got the window out as all being well i should be putting in some gussetes down the window pillers next weekend

 

absolutely stunning progress!!!
