exhaust pipes offered up before balance pipe fitted , also you will see 3x2 chassis connectors and prop loop fitted , connectors make a much firmer ride and launch, must get round to giving the underbody a lick of fresh paint

Nice welding Jim.

Those frame cons are the way i did mine (3x2 box steel) , lift one side & the other side goes up with it.

Blimey, Jim! I know you said it had needed a lot of welding, but I never realised how much! Looks amazing now. I'd only ever seen this in it's current state, so that's an eye opener.

Zorst looks brilliant too, Mate. Helps being a welder, having an old motor, I'll bet.

I was looking at it at The Nats and was amazed at the quality of the work done.

Really nice car and really nice owner.
