Thats the right colour for a Taxi chassis Steve. Sorry, It should be shiny black. Are you sure that you havn't swopped your old chassis for a new one? Looks brill.
Shaun I think the people that quiered the use of the FX3 frame might just be eating their words !!! I'm very happy with it. Sent from my iPhone using TJJ app
Well the weather has been great again so I started to run the brake pipes today, I couldn't make my mind up to use Kunifer or Stainless but the decision was made for me when i checked my fittings stock as all i had was stainless fittings. I didn't have any stainless thru the frame fittings so made some up on the lathe from 5/8" stainless bolts. Brake line is held by rubber lined stainless P clips secured by 5mm stainless button head set screws. .
Nearly forgot the Bigbossman swung by today probably hunting for doughnuts :lol: He has been doodling again and made me up this tag plate for the firewall :lol:
That is one smooooooothe frame. It looks so good that it make no sense!!! FYI thats a compliment!!! Something is off, and i can't put my finger on it. Nice sticker, thats so funny. I laughed so hard it startet to give me breathing problems!!! Now I know whats off, your standard is so high, that it ain't of this World, you most be from a different planet!! Good work, keep posting!!!
"I didn't have any stainless thru the frame fittings so made some up on the lathe from 5/8" stainless bolts" Of course you did! That thing is looking great!
Man, Steve, that is not to describe! pure quality! i repeat my suggestion, i think you invented the stainless steel! a pleasure to look at your work.. and i'm sorry for your loss, mate. damn C get's too many of the good people. Carsten
Cheers guys, it's not to bad really, I just did the bits that showed, I'm not to bothered about the finish on this one as it will get abused but I still want it to look tidy. Sent from my iPhone using TJJ app
Cheers dude, yep I like attention to detail but I havn't done as much on this one as i usually do, I just want this one to look tidy and then abuse it
Top shelf, Steve, really - the car is looking awesome, up to and even beyond your usual high standards ... I just sent you an email on my new project I just picked up this past Sat. Yep, a boatload of work but it will be well worth it! Cheers and my best to the missus ....
Is this the type vehicle your frame came from Steve? That paint looks better on your frame than most of my car's paint!
Thanks, Yep it came from one of them mate, they are slightly too long at i think it was 112" wheelbase, I just shortened mine by 9"
