Im gradually starting to do bits on my car again. No work done on the shell as I need to sort out the tubing for the cage as thats the about the biggest thing fabrication wise to do on the shell. I need to sort the rear arches and quaters out too but dont want to do that until the cage is in. Soooo Im tidying up bits and powder coating stuff whilst Im waiting for the material to come in for the sill GB.
Ive powder coated the swirl pot and the catch tank and I was going to modify the bailey expansion tank I have but after looking at it today its going to be too much of a bodge so Ive decided to make a new one out of ali that will fit in the area where the battery used to be.
I had a go at bending the ali tube that Im going to use for the ''skeleton'' of the new centre console but it didnt work out. The tube just kinked instead of getting a nice smooth radius so Ive got to find a way of bending it nicely.
So not a lot of fab work but Im slowly doing bits that I was going to do further down the line and at least they will be ready to go on the shell once thats finished. Ill be starting work on the shell after Ive cleared up the outstanding sills from the GB. Its good to be able to do bits again, Ive seriously missed working on the car and Im glad my hand is as good as it is after my accident because I was worried that the project had come to end. Thankfully it was just put on hold for 9 months.
