Iain's 20XE Trackday Nova

Stitch welded the insides today. Not sure if some of it was necessary but it won't hurt!

Smoothed the beesting aerial hole off, should never have fitted one!

Only issue left now is my slam panel. Cut out all the rusted metal and left with quite big holes. Mostly covered up by the wing so I'll probably plate them seeing as a replacement panel won't fix it all.

So is that every seam stiched up?

Yeah, can't think of/find any more seams to do.

Think of all the weight of that extra weldage.....

good work iain

The weight will be worth it when it beats you around track Adam :eek:

fapping awesome. proper shell prepage

Finally got that pesky slam panel patched up.

Found it difficult to do without blowing lots of holes but got there in the end.

Currently looking at metal box section to sort my seat rails out. Needs to be about 3mm thick?
