Treated myself



Treated myself to a full day on the GT6 it was the bank holiday Monday !!
Got rear suspension together at last and fitted nylon buttons to the swing spring to aid movement instead of rubber ones that wear out in about 6 miles and certainly better than new springs that don't have any slide buttons at all, just metal on metal.
Got shell bolted on chassis eventually too and steering now functional so shes almost finished..
Another good day like that and i recon shell be ready for an MOT.

MARTINI TIME


With shell painted (just doors and bonnet to do) its on with the chassis build.
Chassis podercoated black and suspension arms fitted with Superflex bushes.Nothing fancy on this car as its to be raced next year in HSCC 70 Road sports a virtually production spec series.
Just rear shocks to source now (most stuff second hand or off EBay on this car as I'm not allowed to spend any real money on my own cars, thank god for my secret pay pal account stash)and she should be a rolling chassis ! then engine and gearbox time..only allow myself a couple hours a week on this car so its taking a taste longer than normal to build unfortunately..
