Just got into the garage to start on the chassis with the parts I have so far, Got some 2nd hand stub axles and rear axle bearings. I have made the first rookie mistake with the steering arms, will have to bend up or down to clear chassis rails. Rear crossmember is tacked in to hold shape, will move once on wheels and seat position sorted.
Toying with the idea of having a dummy twin mounted at the front.
