Front uprights
I made these out of 2mm hot rolled sheet.
It has a yield of 300mpa, bright mild is 200 so it 30% up.
I wanted to make this build a simple as possible so I selected a Toyota Corolla 2010 as a Wheel bearing brake doner.
The 206 runs a 13" wheel so I wanted to get some brakes under it.
The original also had inboard rear disks, I am going out board.
The Toyota has a 275 vented disk, the wheel bearings are hub styles, So front bearing will go on the back and rear to front.
Front disks all round and wilwood calipers all round.
Caliper bracket is attached internally, It is built into the upright to spread the load , I did not want to mount onto any particular panel.
It is 6mm

Main sheet folded to the general shape.
All this is fitted in and out of the jig to keep you on track with the main points
that really count at the end of day.
Center tube and crush tubes go in and fully welded

Side panels, top bottom panels, I have added an extra layer on the top and bottom that ties it in down the side but I have no pic.
