Quite a good day today as I got all the heavy steel cut for one side.

I will have a lot of rivets to do soon.

That's about all the side steelwork done except for the rivets. All holes are drilled and I'll try and get it riveted tomorrow.

I gave my son Andrew a job to sort out some rivets but I think his artistic side took priority for about 10 minutes. Never mind. I will probably make the exhaust cover next while I'm on this side.

Come on Howard, be nice now! There goes the Xmas list.
I'm in the process of replicating the exhaust cover and they certainly went to a lot of trouble. |

Thankyou Frantisek!
I did some more of the front which now makes it quite ridged and really interesting part is a angle gusset that is hidden from view with the numbers 6 and 9 centre punched in it and it was probably done during it's time of manufacture. There is also a part number as well. |
