ohhh YES its looking nice now. Great work on the tank. This will be an awesome car.

I do know what a hose like that costs.
If you are building a car like you do i dont think you should economise on a piece of hose

Thanks Len.

@Eric,

You got a point, if there's not an elegant option than I probably will have to get a new hose, we'll see.

Small update.

Yesterday I spent alot of time making a cardboard dummy for the feulfilter bracket, lots of time little progression.

Also the rear brakeline connectors went in:






Today I started on making the chassis ready for the radpack.

First up is the bottom beam:




Endtanks are on the radiator!!
Welds?!?! Papertape is all we need!




A bit of sawing:






A bit lower but still a long way to go:





More cutting and hacking later!

Hmmm..

Killed my second radiator today....
I made a mistake removing the original endtanks, damaging the material inside.
It had to welded a bit and that went wrong.
So another one next week.

Then I went to the positioning of the cores, I planned to keep the bottom part, but after much grinding etc. I had to conclude that it all had to go.
Making a new one from scratch.

Did some panel beating on the left and right front plates, they had been damaged during the crash.
I'm pretty happy with the result, when it's painted you won't know it had any damage at all.
Also because the bumper will be in front of them....

Finally I did a first trail fit for the 2 cores.
This position is too way low, will be fixed!

Leftover, not much but much to weak:



Be gone I tell you!!:





Hammered:



Dry fitting:





Tommorow more..

Welded together soon I hope!
