OK !  Included myself to give an idea of size. Looks a lot less complete than earlier pics. All the alloy body panels are safely stored away. |

Cheers guys. I'm at least 3 foot 6 1/2" as you fully well know !  Yep, from previous pics, folk seem to think that it's similar to an Austin 7 Ulster in size, but it's 14" longer in wheelbase and proportionately bigger all round. As I said at the start of the build, I want this to be tall and narrow. More 1920s than the later, lower stance, that evolved for sports/race cars in the 30s. Makes getting in harder but working underneath easier. Pics taken by my daughter.

The prop tunnel is in a poor state having previously been, cut, riveted, dented, drilled and mounted too high. The rear transverse floor supports have also been removed. None of this by me I might add. Rather than trying to repair, I had decided to replace it all with new steel and while the prop is out seems a good time to do it. Just need to borrow, a meter length of 4" diameter steel bar or heavy tube, to form the tunnel over. Hmmm, wonder what size lamp posts are ?
