also to day i had a go at making a chassis section for in front of the rear spring hanger that goes from the main chassis beam to the side of the back rear quoter :wink:

fair play it isnt very good but was a 1st try :) will probably make a better one out of the 2m in 3 strips and then seam weld them :wink: 8)

this was just out of a flat sheet as some one told me but cant rember who that you can bend metal sheets by having a other thicker one on top and useing a club hammer so had a try :oops:

this what i come up with :wink:

Hey Inti,
Thats a really good bit of sheet metal fabrication you've got going there. Clean the paint off and weld it in and it'll be better than new... :D :D :D

Keep it up Inti.

You could buy 2 driving lessons for that much money, AND have change! :shock:

If you need somewhere to store tools go down your local car boot sale and buy someone's old MFI wooden chest of drawers for about a fiver. Would probably be stronger than that £50 tin one aswell
