Exhaust (cont’d)
I had to manufacture some exhaust hangers for the back box and fit them with the back box into position
http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...t/IMG_0805.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...t/IMG_0807.jpg The next on the menu was to make a template between the exhaust manifold and the back box so I came up with a cunning plan and used these http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...t/IMAG1254.jpg A length of 15mm copper tube and 5 nylon rings http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...t/IMAG1255.jpg By bending the copper pipe into an approximate shape require for the centre pipe, then placing two of the rings at one end and then inserting them into the manifold parted to get alignment I could see where to adjust the copper pipe for best fit http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...t/IMAG1257.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...t/IMAG1260.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...t/IMAG1261.jpg By placing the fifth ring (the one with the blue marker on)which was a slip fit over the pipe and the outside diameter of the exhaust I could then place the template back into the exhaust at both end and run the fifth ring along the copper pipe to see there was enough clearance along its length and adjust the copper pipe where required http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...t/IMAG1262.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...t/IMAG1260.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...t/IMAG1257.jpg Once satisfied I could then use the template to manufacture the centre pipe http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...t/IMAG1265.jpg Marking as I went along I cut the pipe at the bend positions taken from the template and shut each in turn to form the shape http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...t/IMAG1267.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...t/IMAG1269.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...t/IMAG1271.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...t/IMAG1296.jpg Once all done my welder tacked each bend and off I went to check it against the car just in case I had to make slight alterations http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...t/IMAG1297.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...t/IMAG1300.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...t/IMAG1304.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...t/IMAG1306.jpg Once satisfied my welder completely welded each cut http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...t/IMAG1310.jpg OK that’s the exhaust system complete, next item …. |
Right next instalments tomorrow, I hope you are liking it so far, if anyone has any questions or can shed light on better ways I may have done things please comment, thanks...

The Gear Shift
The gear linkage from the Honda was longer than that of the mini and had to be shortened
http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...e/IMAG1364.jpg To go about shortening the linkage I cut the ends of and fitted the to the car and then reshaped the link tubes in turn to fit between the ends http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...e/IMAG1316.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...e/IMAG1318.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...e/IMAG1319.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...e/IMAG1346.jpg When each of the link tube had been bent into their new shape I trial fitted each in turn, setting the gear stick to a mid position and checking clearances under the car. http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...e/IMAG1325.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...e/IMAG1343.jpg To hold them in place I cut some flexible split cable conduit and used that to hold the ends, I rotated each to their best fit and then marked them. http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...e/IMAG1345.jpg The areas to be welded were cleaned and the services of my welder were again called upon. I had them tacked first then checked them in the car and then once satisfied they were positioned correctly I had them fully welded. http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...e/IMAG1355.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...e/IMAG1363.jpg I then cleaned back all the old paint and then re painted. http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...e/IMAG1371.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...e/IMAG1372.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...e/IMAG1375.jpg All I would need to do then was re-glass the original cut out for the mini gearshift. |
Fitting the Alternator
As the original position for the alternator on this engine was at the rear I had to come up with a mod to front fit it, so first I made an aluminium interface plate that would pick up on the lower engine block holes...... Note on the plate’s top right hole, this picks up with a tapped hole in the block and when the bracket is fitted the top right hole of the bracket set itself up perfectly for the belt alignment.
http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...r/IMAG1212.jpg I acquired an alternator bracket from a Honda Prulude which was front mounted, the holes on the interface plate were drilled to suit the holes of the bracket so it could be mounted it the correct position. http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...r/IMAG1211.jpg Because the alternator I had was smaller in size I wanted to for that rather than a Prelude one so I offered up the alternator to check what mods were required. http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...r/IMAG1207.jpg The pivot on the alternator was a perfect fit and the belt aligned with the crank pulley just as planned. http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...r/IMAG1204.jpg The lower hole on the alternator was out of position and didn’t follow the path on the bracket , this I had to slot. http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...r/IMAG1210.jpg I space out with washers the miss match on the adjuster and later made correct size spacers to replace the washers http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...r/IMAG1129.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...r/IMAG1385.jpg All worked fine so I then cleaned the bracket and gave it a coat of paint. http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...r/IMAG1431.jpg The next thing to do was change the connector on the harness as the harness was for an OBD1 ecu and the alternator was from an OBD2 ecu. |
Steering
I decided to fit the Honda steering column rather than the mini one so I could use the Honda loom and all the niceties of a later column, this gave a few problems at the rack end because the splines were different.
http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...n/IMG_0845.jpg I gave it a thought and then stripped down a old mini rack I had and removed the pinion, I took it into work, made a heat sink and with the inner bearing race still attached I had my welder build up the end over the existing spline. http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...n/IMG_0844.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...n/IMG_0849.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...n/IMG_0853.jpg Then jumped onto the lathe and turned it down to a size I had experimented with earlier, before this I had done test pieces to get things right before I attempted the pinion http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...n/IMG_0855.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...n/IMG_0856.jpg Then I set a medium straight cut knurling tool and put on a new spline http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...n/IMG_0857.jpg Once completed it was tried into the Honda steering knuckle and hey ho a finished pinion. The reason I left the inner race on was because the new spline was to be larger than original and wouldn’t slip over. http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...n/IMG_0861.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...n/IMG_0859.jpg Well that went well so I stripped down a new mini steering rack hoping to fit the modified pinion but all was not well, the pinion was of a diffent pattern than the old one I had done the mod on so back to work to do it all over again with the new pinion http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...n/IMAG0938.jpg Once done at last the rack was rebuilt and fitted into the car. Now for the column, as the car was made with a ply-wood shelf which supported the mini column I had to make up various brackets to allow the Honda column to fit, first I fitted the knuckle to the rack but on doing so it fouled the fibreglass around the hole so that was ground back down to allow full rotation http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...g/IMAG0944.jpg Then the column was fitted to the knuckle and a bracket was made to fix the top of the column to the ply shelf http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...g/IMAG0972.jpg As the column is adjustable I then made a support for the mid section of the column http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...g/IMAG1376.jpg Then the ply shelf was drilled and all bolted into place http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...g/IMAG0973.jpg |
I'm liking this resto/conversion.

Thanks Alec more coming....

Throttle
The throttle peddle was the next to be sorted as I was using a Honda cable and due to where the engine sub-frame covered the original cable hole for the mini I had to re-position the hole to miss the sub-frame
http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...e/IMAG0965.jpg As the Fibre glass was thicker than the steel firewall from the Honda I manufactured a carbon-fibre interface plate http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...e/IMAG1427.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...e/IMAG1430.jpg The the peddle needed to be altered to suit the new cable position http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...e/IMAG0961.jpg The peddle then was warmed and bent upwards to achieve enough travel but not so the it sat above the brake peddle http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...e/IMAG0969.jpg The engine was refitted into the car and the cable run in http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u.../IMAG1432A.jpg The throttle body was the fitted and the throttle was tested for full travel http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...e/IMAG0966.jpg All good there |
Your exhaust routing idea and cut section weld techniques for the bends are as inspired as your steering spline mod.
The McCoy I saw was in Brighouse west Yorkshire travelling with a hard top quantum and a mustard coloured allegro towards hebden bridge so they probably came off the M62 so could of been from anywhere. It was odd because when the quantum came out I recall drooling over it particularly the use of Sierra sapphire back lights but yet now it looked very dated and the rear lights looked massive whereas the McCoy looked more like a traditional yet very small sports car lotus élan esque.Ed. |
The Throttle body
I now discovered a major problem, the throttle body inlet was looking straight at the clutch master cylinder, now that’s not good, I had a few options here, I could either buy a set of individual throttle bodies or go the hard way and modify the one I had..
http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...e/IMAG1131.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...e/IMAG1130.jpg Well a challenge it was then, there seems to be a theme going on here, if I can go the hard way then that’s the way to go, my thoughts on these things are, anyone with enough money can go and buy all the nice new goodies and bolt them on but I wanted to make this mine so the modification was the way to go. So here goes (Caution: this part of the build took some time and I want to thank both my welder colleagues for all the work they put in for me here) http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1139.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1135.jpg First things first, I need to cut and shut the ports to allow the throttle body and chamber to lift up and forward away from the clutch master cylinder, I decided where to cut and then machined both the cut faces flat and square. http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1137.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1141.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1142.jpg After I checked the measurements and angles of the machined part, incase I needed to make further changes after a trial fit. http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1140.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1139.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1143.jpg After checking there became a mismatch of the ports, this was expected and I was going to put in spacers later to compensate for the errors http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1150.jpg A trial fit was done and the spacer thickness was determined http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1146.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1144.jpg Once knowing the thickness the angle for each spacer was measured http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1146.jpg Then I manufactured them http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1186.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1187.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1188.jpg Once made all was cleaned and this is where my welders made it all come together, after lots of cursing of course http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1314.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1311.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1312.jpg One side done….now for the other half |
The Throttle body (cont’d)
This is where the cursing came in
http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1348.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1347.jpg As you can imagine it was very difficult for him to get to some of the weld areas but he kept at it and produced this.. http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1354.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1353.jpg Now to machine the distortion from the flange face http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1351.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1352.jpg With that done the bores were ground flush to remove any welding and rough edges then it was back to the car to see how it looked http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1361.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1362.jpg That done the trick, well that was the first saga over with.. On assembling the air temp sensor fouled the injector rail so that had to be dealt with, I ground away the rail but that wasn’t enough, if I went much deeper then I would have broken through into the fuel gallery so other thoughts had to be made. http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1417.jpg What I needed to do was machine the boss at an angle to allow clearance, make a new boss so back to the milling machine and then speak nicely to my welder again.. http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1424.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1420.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1422.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1425.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1426.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1427.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1433.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1434.jpg All done now to fit it all together.. http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1435.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1436.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1437.jpg Just right…. |
The Throttle body (cont’d)
After fettling a bit more from the fuel rail to allow for the throttle movement the was on last thing to do..
http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1428.jpg The brake vacuum take of pipe was facing in the wrong direction http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1438.jpg So after gently heating the casting around the pipe I managed to rotate it to the required direction http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1440.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1441.jpg Now it was completely assembled and ready to fir to the engine.. http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1445.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...d/IMAG1447.jpg Happy with that… |
The wiring harness
I acquired a complete Honda harness that I was going to modify to suit the McCoy, It was a harness from a civic so I would have quite a few bits to cut out, first I took the rear harness and rebuilt that, removing the electric window wiring and anything else I didn’t require
http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG0993.jpg Then I started to fit the engine harness and the engine bay harness for the lights etc, this I would cut about removing unwanted bits later. http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG0937.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG0936.jpg The parts of the harness I didn’t need were the ABS, Air con etc I made drawings of the wiring and what was for what, labelled all the ends and then it was ready for stripping, I didn’t want to do that yet because I didn’t know what was required for the ecu, so I started the cabin wiring (Warning: If you have a nervous disposition look away now) http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1486.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1485.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1484.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1483.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1482.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1490.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1497.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1502.jpg Well if you can make any sense of that lot without getting a head ache please come and sort it out because it has done my head in, I won’t let it beat me but I will be doing it in stages, it had taken an age to get here, looking through wiring diagrams, sorting out what is needed, what may be needed, what isn’t needed or of it was effected by what had been or was going to be cut out…..Hmmmm, needless to say I have left this alone for a while now to get my sanity back |
The Seats
As the seats in the car were so tatty I got some from seats from a Ford Fiesta Si, I have had a lot of Fords in the past and I know their seats are good for comfort and as these were from a sport model they lent good support
http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1398.jpg The problem with them were the framework underneath was too high so I made some new sub-frames, took the rails from the cars original subframe and fitted them onto the seats lowering them by about 50mm http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1387.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1388.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1390.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1391.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1392.jpg Once done I test fitted into the car, they were much better for height and as I am over six feet I didn’t do too bad.. |
The next episode is covering the headlight choices and front wings....
|
Headlights and Front Wings
Well I have been pondering on and off about the headlight originally fitted to the McCoy, they do start to grow on you after looking at them for so long, but you here from people, clan owners as well that they preferred the rectangular head lights that were fitted to them, well yes I think I agree they do look better than the round ones, I also looked into having pop up headlight so I got some from a Mx-5 but when trying to fit them, I discovered with having the Honda engine in the bay they would not fit, so they are for sale, then I decided I wanted to change the front styling so got a new pair of motorcycle rectangular head lights that would nicely fit..
So I started and cut off one of the healight pods to see how they would look.. http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...IMAG1559_1.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...IMAG1577_1.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...IMAG1578_1.jpg OK they would work so I started to put some shape into the wing using expanded foam… http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1579.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1580.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1581.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1582.jpg Hmm that may work.. but I would have liked them lower in the wing so I reworked the foam and glassed in flush following the wing shape http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1590.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1591.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1592.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1594.jpg No.. I had another thought, that’s trying to be too much like a clan, so the I thought about twin projectors, so I ripped out what I had done and had a re-think… So out came the card.. http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1624.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1622.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1625.jpg That could work, it measures up and a pair should fit in there.. but first I had to build up the inner wing which had previously cut away to accommodate the sub-frame to cover the near side engine mount.. http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1600.jpg With that done I set off to reshape the wing, firstly getting some perforated aluminium, cutting it to shape, covering it in cling film and clamping it in place http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1601.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1602.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1603.jpg Then fibre glassing in… http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1604.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1605.jpg |
Headlights and Front Wings (cont’d)
Once set I could trim the glass back to follow the shape of the bonnet
http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1611.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1612.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1613.jpg Now to even up and put in some strength.. http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1630.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1631.jpg And now to build up the top of the wing.. http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1632.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1633.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1634.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1635.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1638.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1640.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1641.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1642.jpg Well I at this stage finally decided what I wanted to do, I had seen the technique done years ago with the custom boys and what they did to there rear lights on the hotrods, so out again with the cardboard and a piece of ducting of the right diameter and come up with this.. http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1718.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1721.jpg So I took some measurements and made this template mould and covered it with lino.. http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1650.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1649.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1648.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1743.jpg Then I clad the whole thing in cling film and cut the glass to suit, mixed up the resin and….. http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1729.jpg out popped this |
Headlights and Front Wings (cont’d)
Next was to cut it to fit and glass it in..
http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1732.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1733.jpg Then to cut the inside to suit the light, http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1734.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1735.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1736.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1738.jpg oh I forgot to say I had got some Hi-Lo Hid units from E-Bay.. http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...IMAG1717_1.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...IMAG1716_1.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1742.jpg Now to cut for final fit and glass it in.. http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1740.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1745.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1746.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1747.jpg Add a build of glass to bring up the height,, http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1750.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1751.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1752.jpg And cover with gel coat, this is where it all went wrong, the gel coat didn’t harden for some reason, I applied heat, left it for a week but still it was a sticky mess.. http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1753.jpg So I ended up having to scrape it all back, cleaning up the mess and I applied filler instead.. http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1754.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1755.jpg Rubbed it all back and applied a few coat of high build filler primer http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1757.jpg |
Headlights and Front Wings (cont’d)
In the mean time back at work I had to come up with a way to adjust the headlights so out came the cardboard again…
http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...IMAG1691_1.jpg Well that was the idea for the brackets now for some adjusters, so I knocked the up.. http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1683.jpg Then some pivots and fix it all together and see what happens.. http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...IMAG1687_1.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1688.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...IMAG1692_1.jpg That all seemed to work so to make them in stainless http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...IMAG1696_1.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1697.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...IMAG1698_1.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...IMAG1700_1.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...IMAG1701_1.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1702.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1703.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...IMAG1704_1.jpg Had the corners welded and then assembled them.. http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...IMAG1706_1.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...IMAG1707_1.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...IMAG1709_1.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1711.jpg The base bracket is only a temporary one until I finish the wing and can come up with a plan to fit them under the wings. A few more coats of filler primer and rub down http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1766.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1764.jpg http://i652.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMAG1768.jpg Yeah well pleased with that.. |
