we got all of the run stand frame made today and the radiator mounted with top and bottom hoses. we added the front crossmember with castors as above but i wasn't happy with the engine's stability so we also put a stabiliser off of each side's engine mounting leg. that fixed it, it's solid now.next ...

that's that done then, even though we didn't need to do it yet. but i couldn't resist . we'll have to knock up the engine run stand now to check out this 360. the results will determine if the nash can be on the road this year.... or not. fingers crossed

a little more done today, just need to cut the bolts to length ready for final assembly. that is once all the black paint's stripped off. it wasn't much but it seems more..... which is good.

today we tapped the stud holes in the ally plate and loctited the studs in place. next it's neatening the edges/corners and drill/countersink it to bolt it to the tunnel ram.
