Well, it's been a month since the last meeting guys. I think it might be time to pay the Beefeater a visit again to discuss respective progress.
What do you think?

Yep I am up for that. I might even bring the motor..... think I missed the last one ut will try my hardest to make this one. How does next weekend suit people?

What Stu, we might actually have a Locost at the meeting?? That sounds pretty good. Next Friday 4th April anyone else??

I will bring the motor for a while but drop it off before i get pissed

"discuss respective progress" .... I guess I'd better get in the garage this month!

Will try and make it, but I'm working in London next week and may not be back in time.

JC,

Just checked out your website. I'm very impressed with your progress. Also fairly impressed how rusty those back wheels are! I think you may be on the road before the end of the summer......

I'm quite keen to hear how you aligned the suspension brackets. (Your Jigs look interesting). Also did you use the same 1" RHS as the chassis for the trailing arms?

Rear wheels are the steels that came off the car (reversed in the pics), but they've been stored outside for a while because they're not going on the car. We've got a set of alloys same as the fronts. These won't fit the back at the moment because drums aren't on a and spacers need to be turned. Were going to get them blasted and powdercoated black. The rear trailing arms are MK's standard fare. I presume they're just the seamed 1" SHS same as chassis. Trying to get bodywork at the mo but MK won't post it, too many getting damaged. Jigs were devised to get alignment spot on, made from 1" thick MDF. Idea was to develop jigs as we progress so that car number two would be easy to make...

Will try and get off backshift on friday, if i can then yep i'll be there. Failing that then it'll have to be the next meeting.

P.S. Mark were the floor panels a good fit?

Is anyone definitely going? I've just had an invite elsewhere... Any confirms for the 4th or would the next Friday be better??

Cheers

JC - the 4th should be OK for me, I'm back from London a day early.

Euan - the floor looks like it should be a very good fit, thanks for sorting it out for me. Will try to get it fitted over the next few days.

Mark

I am free both weekends. If it is this Friday I will definately be there

Are you guys the closest to me?

Mix (just beginning)

Not heard of anyone else in this site from up your way. But I know that there some people in the Scottish Kit Car Club from up north.

See you tonight guys, I'll be there about 8:30. I'll bring the camera to take pics of Big Stu's machine (looks like a nice evening out there)...

Cheers

i'l b there about 8
