i have finally finished the cage and can now start putting the car back together. the cage has been a nightmare, the front legs have to be rotated about 30 degrees between the bends which i did not realise until the new legs came down so i had to order another pair. the cost is adding up and i have spent hours of work on it.
i have welded in some seat rails and fitted the sunroof panel. i took all the plastic vents out of the back of the dash, cut out for the front cage legs and fitted the dash. it is nice to be putting parts back in without having to grind, weld and paint first.
the next job is to paint the sunroof panel, fit all the wiring, steering column and wheel so i can work out where the seat is going. i am leaving the door bars until the end of the build as i don't want to be climbing in and out over them, it is bad enough getting over the seat rails.
i have painted the rear quarter and that looks ok now.
i can refit the fuel tank, prop and exhaust now the welding has been finished
