Hey there FA,

I don't want to be tagged as the boring git on here, but is there any chance of changing your username for the sake of the young or easily offended?
I don't mind the odd bit of swearing (I do it myself often enough) but as a username it's a bit "in your face".

Guys, am I right, or out of touch?

Cheers,

Alan B

I have to say agree with Alan.

John.

ps - i've spent about £100 on steel, though not all's for the car.

I've spent around £70 so far, got a little bit more to get.

Also agree about the name thing as my eight yr old daughter is rather fond of sitting on my lap while I read the posts....

cheers

Altogrther in cluding sheet steel £60


DaniSinn - 1/8/02 at 11:48 AM

I paid just over £100 for mine. There was enough there to complete all the chassis with a bit left over for future repairs/modifications!

managed to get mine free through a past employer!!

I paid £120 for my steel plus a few extra bits and bobs. That includes all the RHS, the 3/4" tube and the steel floor.

I want to start soon, so im looking to get the steel next week. Those that replied to the original question, where abouts did u buy it. Did you just look up steel fabricators in the yellow pages. Anyone know of anywhere in the Essex area thats good.


Thanks
