Finally pieced the front end together-spring behind thru bones on a stock 46 axle. Still gotta get the spring pack right..think ill run out of travel once the body and everything are on. trying the headlights up high for a bit of a fourties look, any opinions? I kinda think two inches lower might work better. The rear is just hung on the spring sofar, Going to set up a triangulated four bar that looks like split rear bones from the side. Front tyres were the swap score of the year so far...brand new 5.50 16s, $110 pair! they retail for about $450pr here. Next is rear end and brakes....
Congrats. Looking good. Your forcing me to have to work on mine so we can race at the picnic.... Cheers, Drewfus
looks real good. will be interested to hear what the engineer says about how the spring is set up, love it tho. whippet grille by any chance?? Essendon next tuesday

Psychoboi and Myself are gonna come and finish it for you this weekend. You are too slow. SaturdayGoodAmigo?
Lower the lights 3-4 inches...IMHO. Once the grille comes down to line up with the cowl.... Cheers.... SATURDAY!
Following Mai's lead.....toss those stupid lights, and since your saving money everywhere else, how about we toss on a set of the following.... (I'll buy a set if you do, nah, I'll buy a set regardless, PM me for details, yes I'm serious.) Cheers, Drewfus Since your
legal = 600mm (2') from ground to centre of headlight.. I say cheat, fit cowl lights, call them head lights, and the ones up front are 'fog' lights, then you can have them as low as you want..... Cheers, Drewfus
guess i could...but as it sits the frame is six inches off the deck....add a few hundred kilo's of body etc.......thats low enuff for me. Engineers? are they the guys on steam trains with the stripy overalls?
