Anyone in Glasgow area or central Scotland got a complete Haynes Roadster chassis I can check fit of new Bonnet, Nose and Scuttle I'm currently producing new mould tools for? Will save me the hassle of building a chassis jig.........thanks

You only need 4 tubes to simulate the top of the chassis, top of front frame 627mm, each top rail 1472mm with 10' Z angles and a tube to keep them the correct distance apart at the back 1068mm with 10' angles each end.

I know that thanks, used to build chassis and bodywork but 90% of my work is now marine (boatbuilder), just as easy to give someone complete prototype and try for size if they are next door Talon. No space for a chassis jig, boat mould and a new plug in the way till spring. Most of my body mould been in storage for 7 years now hence new tooling
