    Floor Strengh

    Yes, I welded some 6mm by 60mm flat bar from side to side 2 off the correct distance for the seat runners. I drilled through these and the floor as when you bolt the seat runners down it pulls everything together. I then welded of these for the harness mounts and triangulated back to the chassis.
  4. The threaded part through the pedal box is actually an adjuster to fine tune and take up slack. Handy to have especially after you have fitted a new cable as it will stretch with use. Id just look at fixing it to the pedal better to prevent fraying.
  5. I have a rear view mirror the bolt down to scuttle type not stick to windscreen type of that helps.

    Camber Wedges

    Im interested in a set will pm you shortly. Thanks.
  7. I wouldnt bother the stainless is only 0.6mm if I remember correctly and doesnt particularly weigh that much. Id put my bets down that the same panel in grp would actually be heavier as it will have to be considerably thicker. You can purchase grp front and rear wheel arches and a dash for the 2b from kitspares which is gbs parts site. Although I had 2 dashs from them and neither were big enough so still ended up making my own.
  8. I have the yellow archer one available if thats anygood?

    2B Wishbone Suspension

    Personally even if you purchased a full second hand set id still replace said bushes and track rod end etc. You are talking about £15 delivered for a pair of news Sierra ones QH etc. Bushes are about £3 a pair I think and youll need 8 youd be aswell just getting your parts sand blasted repaint or powder coat and fit the above. That way also ensures they will fit back into your mounts. As we all know the tolerances by Robin Hood when these were made werent exactly great.

    2B Wishbone Suspension

    Iirc the drag link on top wishbone is usually ford transit ball joint. The track rod ends are Sierra. And you can get new rubbers to go in the arms off eBay.

    Rear Engine

    Unless you were considering a bike engine I dont think it would be worthwhile. And even running a bike set up you would have to fit a counter weight in the front which is just adding unnecessary weight overall.
  12. My list was to fit the windscreen which Ive actually just done. Make a boot with lockable lid and try to get the fuel gauge more accurate when at the lower end was only really concerned it read full for the Iva lol.

    East Yorkshire Meets

    Certainly, wont take much organising.
  17. Interested in shocks will message you.
  18. Evening all, obviously I keep my eye out for upcoming meets but the majority are a good distance away. Im based in East Yorkshire are there any meets this way? Granted I get there probably arent that many members over here or North Yorkshire but seen as we are blessed with some of the best driving roads it seems a shame not to ask lol. Mike.
  19. Smiths prism for me, can run from bolt heads but I was fortunate enough to have a Hall effect sensor pre built into my type 9 box so just calibrated the pulses to match road speed.
  20. Thanks guys, yeah our photographer was great. His pics are fantastic cant wait to see all of them he just sent a few teasers over yesterday, hes big into his cars too. His work car is a Audi rs3 lol. Shes definitely a keeper quite a petrol head herself went down a treat when I told her she was named on the insurance lol.
  21. So after an incredible weekend of getting married and partying very hard! Just thought Id share a quick pic of my kit that made it to the wedding as my wedding car along with my very understanding wife! Id like to thank you all for any help and advice given to me during the build. Cheers mike.
  22. There was a pair on eBay not that long ago. There is also a job lot on there now from a 2b which Im certain has arches in it.
  23. http://nw.rhocar.org/wheel%20arch.htmThis write up on nw hoddies is good so you can work it out from here. I would imagine you may get away with leaving wing on the car and just changing the grp how tight you will get it depends and you may scratch it.
