What's up with the floor ?
Floor pan or boot floor ?
Boot floor? Mine is solid, the erm, other floor is also solid but has a bit of a bend in the drivers side, lemme know if you want it, although it's a long way to travel, depends how desperate you are!Quote:

The floor pan has rusted badly, basicly where they welded in the extra suport for the chassis it melted away the underseal and it was never replaced, hence bad rust on the floor. You can see the state of the chassis supports in page 2 or 3 I think in this thread, and what it has caused can be seen here

Thats basicly where the project has gone on hold back in 2008 and took a back seat. Split from my wife back end of 2008/early2009 so it wasn't a priority for me. Doing Paul's sport has given me the inspiration to carry on and start again where I left off.
Being for me and ultimatley it will be kept for years to come and for my son to enjoy in time so I want it to be done right and then it will last another 25 years so there is no rush as to when it will be done.
He will also have this to enjoy (110cc) until he can drive the real thing,

They were only ever available from Irmscher Uk, It is also in need of a mini restoration as the lights should work along with a radio etc. I know of 3 in existence (mine, Irmscher Germany have one and Russ Swift's son) I also know of the possible location of another 1 maybe 2 but I have never had the time or money to try and track them down, but 2 people have mentioned the strong possibility of them being there.
One thing that has impressed me looking back at this... Is how tidy my garage was back in 2008!!

It'll be the tale of the guy in Newcastle who had a spider sat in his garage and another one sat in another garage :roll:Quote:
