A bit more work has been done since the last post, mainly the radiator support has been fixed in place…

Here it is welded in, with the radiator laid in lose…

Here’s what the final thing should basically look like…

I’ve also been working on the exhaust system design, I’ve got myself painted into a bit of a corner due to the frame design so the exhausts need to be a bit knotty to work the way I want.  Below is the first full design, this is a 180 degree system with 1.625″ primaries and 2.5″ secondaries.  The lengths are nearly equal, but there’s a limit to what can be achieved there.

Since the last post I’ve finished off the suspension brackets and welded them onto the frame.

In a couple of the pictures you can see the radiator support mocked up in place as the next job to do.  Again the digital angle guage came in handy to straighen out the tubes at the front of the car which had been bent in a minor way due to supporting the frame on the engine stands.

You may also spot a few more tubes in the frame, now I think it’s actually getting close to being stiff enough! Ha ha!
