I'm disappointed in the lack of updates now James :mad: you left ours at 12pm midday, so you'd have been home at 1:30pm... now, c'mon... wheres those updates lol :p :thumb:

OK ok as i'm sure you have all guessed by now track day and i have been away but so not to disappoint (and after a week off the build i was gagging to get on with it) i have an update for you all. I will say its nothing major but an update never the less and a step closer to getting the shell rolling and painted!

So after the travel home from Ollys and the usual post holiday luggage and washing faf i craked on....

I started with the O/S drop mount as it needed some holes drilling in it

And mounted on the lower panel so i could start building up the arms and tie bars

Then on with the arms

Raw materials and the arm i made previously

Chopped these bits of plate to size

And welded the top plate on

Then shaped the bottom plate so it missed the ball joint bolts

And tacked it on to the arm

http://i248.photobucket.com/albums/g...etrack2011.jpg

And welded it in

http://i248.photobucket.com/albums/g...etrack2016.jpg

http://i248.photobucket.com/albums/g...etrack2017.jpg

Then made up some sides to box it in

All done with the arms other than paint!

Once the arms were sorted i turned my attention to the bars
