Chassis Rolling (And Update)
After everything that's happened in the last few weeks, I had a few hours in the garage today and managed to get everything rolling.
All went together first time without a hammer as well.

Getting to the rolling chassis stage is the first major milestone - one of the "good feeling" moments! All of a sudden it starts to look
like a car in the making.
Have fun!

All the bones are 1" diameter and 3mm wall - bottom front ones by Martin Keenan and top front ones (fully rose joint adjustable) by Volvorsport
from this forum.
Cage made by Martin Keenan and is a thing of beauty - and yes, I have smacked my head on it a few times!

Yes, and rolled bakwards and forward with my feet on the floor like the flintstones.

Yeah Mark.
I've a et of wheels with slicks for track days and a set for road use.
Was gonna 750 it, but looked at the costs.
Then the full body, but though I'd save the pennies and just get it on the road.
Little one soaking up the money at the moment!

We're all back home from the hospital and she is tonnes better, although they said it may be 3 months before her cough has totally gone and she
is "back to normal".
Oh well.
Thanks for asking.
