whats going on now then austin?
.............
Love this car ...
i want a saloon nova
stunning build mate:D
i love the quality of fabrication and thougth that has gone into the car.
the only thing that is personaly worrying me is the rear beam, it looks good but i would personaly not trust those rose joints, i hope you have thought things through properly regarding this as the last thing i would want to hear is something about the rose joints giving way.. they look way too small tbh anyway, and with the loads going through them i dont think they would last long anyway untill play apeared..
tada! itll just be there all finished at billing..Quote:

yes i know that, but when cornering hard there is going to be tremendous amount of stress going through those 2 rose joints. i would have speced them a damn sight bigger
as i am generous and i love this build if you have any doubts yourself austen i have some rose joints here which are used in the aeromotive industry, beleive they are used for some of the main rotor parts on a helicopter. you welcome to have 2 of them for free.
heres a pic so u can see what i mean for size..
