Dashboard Stage 3

Glued foam onto MDF and then 'leather-a-like' to the foam and stapled around the back. Next to find some perspex.

Wings

Front cycle wings are now on but need removing to paing the wing stays.

Dashboard

Almost complete but not quite, I think it looks quite nice.

So far

Picture of the car so far.

In the open

The car out of the mud and onto a workable surface

Brake pipes

Brake pipes are in position now, just need to sort out the flexi hoses

Both the fuel and brake pipes are running inside the tunnel

1st Panel

This is the first panel cut roughly to size

Tense moment

Used a piece of wood clamped to the chassis and bent the ali over by hand then hammered it down with a soft hammer

Rivetting

One of our best buys was the air rivet gun

Easy

So so easy.

Back into it

After moving house and the winter we're back into the build, this is a bracket for the front flexi-hose.
