Fireworks.

Fair bit of welding going on today at Autostyl. Ant got down to welding in the open ends of the chassis rails in Dexter's '63 Split bus. Thus adding more rigidity to help support the porsche engine. It will also give good mounting surfaces to which the engine mounts can be attached.


Meanwhile, Ben's been throwing out some sparks whilst repairing the bottom edge of the inner wing on the cab.

Jay's got the underseal removal technique dialled in, and the results have only revealed good, factory paint arches, with no corrosion at all!!!! Love this bay - its just so damn solid!!!



Then, this evening, i managed to get a bit more strength back into the brasilia. After TIG'in the new longitudinal supports, i popped in the beam to check fit. Some adaptation to the framehead is required - as Brasilia's are balljoint from factory, but we're converting to link pin for a smooooth low ass ride......
