Hi All & Seasons Greetings
It’s been a while but here the latest ‘up date’!
Very much under the banner of getting ready for what’s next rather than what’s been done…
The parts from Fibersteel have finally made their way from California to Cumbria (via Switzerland!) sadly a few hic-ups have meant delivery times haven’t been up to Fibersteel’s usually excellent standard, however they remain great folks to deal with.
So, what we have here is a set of front ’speed’ jacking points. On the real thing the centre plugs are part of the main chassis rails, while the dome is part of the alloy body but with a shell made of fiberglass and a chassis that finishes in a very different place in the car these will be purely for visual effect…
I’ll get some primer on them in the next few days but marking out and the eventual fitment will have to wait until it stops raining and warms up a little outside…
All the best and Happy Christmas to one & all…
