I thought I might as well try the rear bodywork on as well, so I persuaded Anthea to give me a hand to manoeuvre it into position and here it is. It was sort of interesting to see the car like this, if only to convince myself that I was making some progress, even if I was going to take everything to bits again.

I ordered a set of taps from RDG Tools and tapped one of the brake mounting blocks to M10x1.5 for the mounting bolts through the calipers. The end result is shown in the photo here. I’ll make some spacers of the proper size, and get the correct length bolts, rather than using stacks of washers. However, it seems to fit fine which is good.
This is boring, really it is. I’ve got to that bit where I’m making the panels for the chassis. I haven’t sorted out the powder coating yet so I can’t actually rivet anything together but I am nonetheless making the panels.
And, it’s boring; did I say it was?
