Thanks Guys

Good to know there are a few other insane people near me.

I am a spark by trade so if you need any electrical help... shout
Also done a lot of Rallying so know my way round problems.

I have just stripped back my "purchase " to the chassis as I have found out its been bodged at the front . Top arms were 30mm too long !!
Got some new steel and a new set of front arms, gonna rebuild to the book.

Lower Darwen, not far from mitch2B and Gav and I believe there are a few more in the area.

mitch2b has a Robin Hood car I believe, Gav is doing a locost with Bike engine and I am trying to follow along with the Gibbs Roadster.

Welcome to the nut house!

Adrian





Why do I have to make the tools to finish the job? More time then money.

Coppull (West of Chorley)

SyKaTurbo - I was going to ask you previously, but I thought the A3 on your avatar looked very similar to one I see every day taking the shortcut at the end of Wigan Lane in Adlington to avoid the lights by Fredericks Ice Creams.

Where abouts in Chorley are you and how far have you got with the build?

Yes that would have been me cutting down Rawlinson (sp) Lane. I live on the road out of Adlington heading up to Rivington.

Not very far into the build. Chassis painted and floor ready to be rivetted in place this weekend and maybe brake lines in if i get chance.
