Photos for chassis build proof
I've now (finally!) completed the front section of the chassis, and just before I start tidying up some of the welds and painting I was
wondering what photos I should take to satisfy the IVA man? Is it worth taking photos of pretty much everything on the basis that digital pictures are
free and it's always better to have too many than not enough?

It is generally the parts that they can no longer see due to panels/obstructions. In particular, I had photos of my lower harness mounts (not easily
visible with the seats in). For a chassis build, I would suggest you take representative photos to show your weld quality on a variety of different
nodes - you are simply demonstrating you are competent.

I think you need to take photos while building the chassis to prove that you built it yourself to make sure it goes in the right class of Amatuer
built car for the IVA.

Neither the dvla nor IVA man looked at my photos.

Yep, I have about 100 photos from tubes of metal all the way to where it is now. It's just they're of the entire chassis rather than
anything specific.

Sounds like a good plan, thanks.

Yes you do - though you'll only need a few and as said they probably won't even look. But take a load anyway, just to be safe.
