a ramble, and fitting tiger rear tub to stuart taylor
Ketchup - 25/11/08 at 08:22 PM

evening all, sorry before hand if i ramble a bit in this post

my build had stalled for the last 4 months, the chassis sat outside looking sad due to a combination of feeling crap in myself and having no money or inclination to do anything. at all.

But i woke up in the last few weeks and with Jonno's help as always, started to get some work done on the car at last.

we have been hunting for cheap or free parts as neither of us have much spare cash to throw at the car when we need to, but with help from fellow builders on here, stuart g for one, for sorting us out with a bargain front end brake set-up, and pete from the tiger owners club who gave me a cat1 rear tub, progress has been made!

I know not everyone will like the look but any comments are welcome

If it wasnt for the help and support from my mates, and from members of the online community i would prob still be a miserable sod doing bugger all.

I thank you all peeps Rescued attachment IMG013.JPG

My old tiger cat rear tub, didn't fit my tiger chassis very well, so i think you've done a good job

cheers, still needs to be lined up 100%, had to cut it about and widen it by 2 inches!

That'll look just fine when it's painted all one colour. Good piece of work.

Nice! Must be nice to have knowledgable people nearby.

Nice work fella, those leading edges may even be more aerodynamic.
