    i wanted to put it on a jig months and months ago but i was concerned that untill i got abit more structure in there that if it flexed and i started welding it while its flexed im screwed

    to be honest it seems ok as it is at the min the ideal time would have been after the cage has gone in but i needed it over before then to put the structure in for part of the legs so its catch 22

    one thing i will say though its going to make painting and sealing the underneath a dodle

    very impressive.
    Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and proclaiming, “DAMN, what a ride!!”
