cross member done and rear glass out...

 

Ideally, you need to emboss/press/swage (how ever you would describe it) the holes, to add a little more strength back into it. that is how we treat lightening holes in aircraft components. admittedly though, it might be rather difficult with it welded in place.

Forgot to mention I bit the bullet and ordered carbon fibre mk1 bonnet, roof and miglia arches all showing weave from arc angles last week should look awesome I hope..... :-D

Should look good when you get them - but be patient you might be waiting for quite some time...

I said i will pick them up at mitp at santapod so gives them plenty of time to be fair they seem very helpful but sometimes are hard to get hold of as i think its a 2 man bad and there very busy... we'll see

Fitted brand ne inner steering column with new bushes. looking to sort doors in the next week or so..... so yeh its slowly coming along nicely. Just need some 32mm gromets to finish off bits i did today...
