I can weld but id sooner buy new frames coz im a lazy shit bag. Not really its just a piece mind with the proper brackets. Instead of what maybe a dodgy weld.

Right just took my leather seat out and but threw bucket in, bugger making a custom frame for that! :wack:

The only prob i can see is the high head gaurd things, its right where the seat belt upper thing is so can't really use the belt to well unless i get a harness.........

Right just went and bought a DW one. :)

As for the belt issue, i can un-bolt the belt from the chassis, and feed it through the hole in the head gaurd thing, then bolt it back up again. Will come perfectly across my shoulder then.

That should work for now! :wack:

close, its posture ;)

I know the harness will keep me shug as a bug, but this will be temporary. The chap i bought the seat from is also selling a brand new 4 point harness so will keep my eye on that, only at £5 at the mo on e-bay! :D

My dad used one of his many many large spanners (about 20mm i expect), and grinded the ends into 2 squares - a perfect brake winding tool for free which i get to keep :cool:

EDIT: which, if you want to wait a week or so, i can bring to Plymouth with me :)
