  1. Graham that panel took 2 attempts and 3 evenings to make and it still doesn't sit flush with the side, but its now bonded and rivited so it's not moving now. Scott Nicking one of grahams ideas to strenghan the floor with ply will meen not much of the box section will sit proud so hopefully the seat won't catch it. as for the roll bar in yours all I can think of is a complete roll cage. Marcus Work is a pain but it pays for the heating in the garage
  2. pics as promised and coffee to warm hands helped

    Front Indicators

    Thanks Ian Stolen for future use
  7. Hi marcus I also wrapped the rack with rubber under the U bolts as most tin tops have some sort of bushing used .
  8. Cant see any holes in your support brackets for the rack to pass through?
  9. Hi Scott I loosly fitted the support brackets onto #25 (which I had to file a bit off the sides to fit in) and then like the video marked the bottom holles on the floor pan with a broken marker pen. The support brackets have diffrent spaced holes to fit against #25 and use the U bolts as final fixing. Cant seem to find my photo's of that section Trev nice to see you about but I don't seem to have permission to see your photo's
  10. loctite list an anebolic here sorry should read complete post. I'll see how much it is at work as we are stockists
  11. the more heads the easier the problem.
  12. I was also thinking of bobbins my self Kieth, how many to each tube are you doing? A meet seems a good idea as I was unable to go op north for a look. I'll bring the jaffa cakes
  13. My biggest gripe was not being told about all the extra's you needed to build the car fraid I can't make it to the auto jumble to ask any questions but would like to know if any future l/w's will include strengthing in the suspect areas or instructions on how to . not given up on it yet just
  14. Watched that as well Looked good in the end but wouldn't want to drive it anywhere Do we have spares markets like that in the UK?
  15. All panels are bonded and the back tube is square (panicked and shot to garage ) I had already put extra steel under the roll bar and supports before Trevs problem. I just feel persanolly that if I put a bit of angle iron bolted to the square tubes and run towards the front picking up the inner seatbelt mount mr SVA would be happier I know I have a lot further to go than some L/w's but hopefully throwing these ideas around will help all.
  16. I posted a piture here showing the rear wishbone mountings as this seems to be a place requiring strengthing. The square tubes are rivetted and smallish tapping bolts hold it in place. like others have suggested using bolts all the way through looks the best solution but how do you stop crushing the tube?

    End Of Life Vehicles

    My donor is Sorned but has all but disappeared so next year I'll have nothing to take to an ATF to get a COD or am I just daft
  18. this is a look from behind the car showing the bottom suspension mountings. Could I attatch a angle iron along the part dropping down and pick up the square suspension tubes and forward for seat belt attachment or would I have to use box tube ?

    Elecric 7

    was designed and built by Lotus Here not selling in ths country
  20. I put a strong rope though the eyes and doubled over then twisted with a large screwdriver untill they came together enought. Still had to force them in with a large rubber hammer
  21. could do with a chassis if thier selling them off cheep

    Same Old

    I'm feeling a bit conserned now but as I'm 3/4 of the way through the build I'll carry on untill finished and SVA'd. My main consern is the seatbelt pull test as at the present time RHSC do not seem to be in a position to help with. But with the help provided by this community I'm sure we can find all the solutions and then pass them on too fellow l/w builders. maybe a fixed thread with the answers in chassis would help. keeping fingers and other bits crossed colin
  23. Great weekend,great racing and very much enjoyed meeting a few of you Hoodies and hopefully will join in the convoy next year wasn,t expecting the mist this morning, thought I'd drunk to much.
