If a Scaremonger makes say 50 statements about a certain subject and some but not all eventually come true does that mean they have the power to predict ?? or just Scaremonger ??

Nice one mike
Just love the effort and commitment your putting into the Build already. Keep the updates coming.
cheers dude, its kinda weird building another car i'll never drive, but it does mean i dont get any moaning or nagging like most husbands do.
I told lou before i started that she gets NO imput into how this car looks and that she only has to drive it !! , well that didnt last long as she's already steering it her way lol.

lookin good mike, keep it coming
be quiet when you leave.... mr munn lives right around the corner
bit of an update,
had to work a bit today so didn't get down the shed till about 3pm, got this bit done by 5.30 and called in for tea.......
I was gonna go to B&Q and get some 3x2 timber for mock up but i couldn't face the place on a saturday, so i cut some 80mm strips out of a bit of ply.
I find it quite hard to visualize what i want sometimes and this helps, especially on working out the angles.
first blood today too............
going back down the shed now.........

liking the use of the wood jig, what did yo use to cut the steel angles look spot on
I stand corrected (Templates it is)

missed this pic earlier, i guesstimated the height first, then held my coilover in place to finalise the height i wanted.
I took the angle off the timberplates ( ha new word! ) using an adjustable protractor, was 60 degrees, then transferred to steel, all cuts done with a 1mm disc in an angle grinder.
