Very nice , mind that exhaust. What sort of speed would you expect to get out of her. There you are one of the classic questions . What's it worth and how old is it. My grandad didn't learn to drive in one. The

Thanks Derek, exhaust is due a good wrapping any day now!

Excellent,well done... building from scratch is a considerable endeavour.
What's the story with the two piece front beam ?... those headers exit the hood side very nicely and with some purpose.
Have you driven on the road yet... how was it ?

Hi Albert,

So many hours I cannot tell you. Lots of obstacles to overcome but it seems very worthwhile.

The front axle is a 1950 design with an integral bearing / bushing assembly in it allowing the beam to twist a small amount.

The headers are my design and creation but the back box is off a Harley, the exhaust note is perfect.

Yes driven it, now adjusting a few parts, pedal box and prop shaft length and UJ's. The suspension worked perfectly.

I am also going to fit a 4.3 ratio rear crown wheel and pinion to give the gears some more length. This will not be available till early October though.

I'm new around here and very impressed with the skill and craftsmanship in evidence.

Thanks John, for such a simple car it has absorbed so many hours and engineering time.
