Can you weld?
Hi all , just joined site , i have ordered the book by chris gibbs and just need to know whether there are any problems i should be aware of before starting out . No idea where this build is going to take me but looking forward (at the moment ) to the journey . Any advice more than welcome .

welcome 
as Mr Whippy says, can you weld?
i,m building the Haynes Roadster too, & can honestly say its one of the best things i,ve ever done,
there is also a Forum dedicated to the Haynes Roadster, along with this forum you will find all the answers you,ll ever need from them both.
good luck with your build.

bits , but from quick responses on here it doesn't look like help is far away ,thanks

just a quick word on the "book", if you have the revised edition then you,ll be fine , if not then all the revisions are available on the
Haynes forum.
hope this helps.

welcome mate
yeah, problems... lol there'll be plenty of things you'll come across in you build which you just won't be able to work out, but theres
usually someone on here who's done something similar. so donm't be afraid to ask any questions

And watch out for that Chris Gibbs bloke, his eyes are too close together for my liking...
