Are the chassis box section tubes in the drivers and passenger footwell sides radiused enough for SVA or do I need to cover them.
Thanks.
Steve.

Did they let you use silicon on the famous Indy dodgy side join?
And I notice I have lagged my Can in a similar way.Should keep the little tinkers ball out of the edges,
Your Car looks cool.

Mark, I read that bit and my head still hurts.
I will have to stop drinking for a day or two and read it again.
Thanks.

Yea, blob of clear silicon OK, though I started out with a neat piece of duck tape just to take the edge off.
You should'nt have a problem, it looks great in the pics.

BTW do you have a date yet?

Mark.
Thanks for that link.
I reckon I will have to put something over it.
I have a sheet of ABS plastic I think I will cut two pieces and cover the whole thing, Remembering to make sure there are no edges on the sheets !!!!
Thanks again.
Steve.
