i've been trying to use as many frontera parts as possible.
got the steering column roughly in place, this will save a lot of work.

this is roughly stock position on the rover.



length is near enough spot on but does depend on front wing position but there is some movement in wheel position now.



and wheel position, with wheel fitted, i've done this style of car before and i'm going there again!!!!

The joys of mock up fab work. Measure ten times, then sit and look, measure another ten times then maybe cut!!!! Lol yes that patch work floor is going, to be replaced by framework and new floor 100mm higher. #channelled #lowslow #ratrod



Patch work floor to be replaced in ratrod. Body was on a car with separate chassis (as it still will be)

Slowly building framework up for body channel, same for other side then body will sit 5inches lower on chassis. Floor panels will be last so I can access underneath.
