There is no such thing as a stupid question.

Just the ones I ask!

I'm still at it and getting closer.

I feel like today was a bit of a break through with painted panels being mounted.

Pics coming soon.

Thanks everyone for the kind words as other folks interest and positiviness (is that a word...) definitely helps keep one going on these things.

Regards, Andrew.

I just noticed its 6 years almost to the day since I started this thread......

I'm not sure how I feel about that...............

Anyway in more recent times I have thought that offering the bodywork relatively cheaply to other builders could speed up their build by a huge amount. It certainly slowed mine down!

An extension of that is to offer a few of the odd one off parts and I suppose the chassis.

And for that matter once the drawings are complete they will be downloadable too.

Details at http://www.tripodcars.com

Thanks again, Andrew.

Your website looks good.

Hi,

I string lined the front end in regard to toe in toe out (small amount of toe in), camber was adjusted using a spirit level (0 camber).

Your trike looks tough!

BTW Mine is registered and on the road now.

Did a 2500km run the other day to Sydney and back.

All went well bar one mudguard trying to break off.

Regards, Andrew.
