fullsunian Posted April 3, 2020 Posted April 3, 2020 Thanks for posting Graeme, but I cant take the full credit as Dave at Mantasport did the chassis work. As Im currently off work like a lots of others so I can crack on until I run out of supplies Ian 3 Quote
bris jas Posted April 3, 2020 Posted April 3, 2020 Well done there guys for saving another, some great fabrication work as well👍 2 Quote
mantasrme Posted April 5, 2020 Posted April 5, 2020 Nice to see you are cracking on with it. I did wonder when it left my place if it might just sit around for a while untouched while you worked out which bit to attack first. 1 Quote

No Im cracking on with it David, 8 hours a day during the lock down. The roll over jig has made so much difference and turned welding into fun, not a pain in the a@?e upside down on my back! N/S floor is going in tomorrow, then the sill, then the......you get the picture. Still dont know what to do with those rear wheel arches though.. Oh and we lost most of the headlining on the drive home in that storm.. Ian 1 Quote
mantasrme Posted April 6, 2020 Posted April 6, 2020 Excellent news. Yeah i think you would have really struggled without a jig on some of that. It does make the whole process so much nicer and gives a much much better finish 1 Quote
