Weekend progress

Well the latest progress pic doesn't show much more than the last one. We had house guests all weekend and I really only had a bit of time to work on the car. I spent a good chunk of that time getting more steel.

Note. Make sure if you decide to have your steel cut into car compatible chunks that you get them cut to the longest piece you will be needing (top tube). Last week I bought all my round tube and instead of thinking, I had them cut them into 5 foot pieces. One of the pieces needed to be ~70 inches so I was looking at trying to join 2 small pieces into one long one or just ponying up 7 bucks for the length I needed.

Oh well, If i expected to get it right every time I'd be doing an easier project.



So all I got done are the:
rear bulkhead assembly plates and the supports (x1,x2,w1,w2)


I left all the bends for later. I may be borrowing a bender from my Dad this weekend. If so it will make that a lot easier. Otherwise I'll build my own.
Next weekend I'll be out of town, so Evenings is all I've got this week.
