Looks like I'll be needing a new chassis...
« on: 30, June, 2012 - 21:05:55 »
Covering 200+ miles/month on these local roads seems to have finished my chassis off.  >:( I'll be looking at swapping the chassis in the next month or so, so if anyone has a decent, straight chassis please e-mail me.

Have you actually had a look at the chassis. You could always make a plate to straighten the rear back into shape.
I have made a plate similar to what Chas has made for his 24v conversion out of plain ali.

I haven't really got the time to do that - I could have a go straightening & strengthening the old chassis once I have a replacement fitted.

The Plumber - I don't appear to be able to e-mail you? How much do you want for it, and can you e-mail me your address?

Lowered suspension  8)
You should get a sub in the boot to finish the look!

Already been suggested by some of the chaps at school.  :o I've even had someone tell me that I should get a bodykit and a spoiler  :D
