Ah bummer. Think I'm going to have to go LWB...

I did wonder how you were going to get around it, but thought you may have a cunning plan.

Nothing currently.... Might need to loose my alloy tank too...

Should have stuck with a car engine

Get a MGF/MGTF rear subframe it's an easy graft on & will give you more space, only extends buggy by about 4 inches I think it is, clearly I'm biased but I do think it looks more proportioned being that little bit longer, although I thought when Steve adapted Mary it was too long.

 

[wagon_1.0]

Lol, I got you. I'll do some measurements tonight. Probably.

Always thought the angle to top of Subframe was too small, if you get me

 

[wagon_1.0]

How long is bumble from the main hoop to the "back"?

his proportions do look good.

Also, i wouldn't mind moving my seats back a bit, was always a little cramped in my bug.

 

[wagon_1.0]

infact i have quite a modification list!! :

 

[Phaeton]

Danny can you help with the measurement, Bumble is in my father's garage whilst we're doing the extension & I don't want to remind him it's there otherwise I may have to move him I did have an image where I had superimposed old over new but I think it's got lost in the Photobucket fiasco

 

[Danny]

I will see what I can do but wont be for a few days

Did you see the chrome photo fucket fix I posted?

 

[Phaeton]

The issue is I removed as many of my images off PB as I could, but they were making i so difficult I just closed the account which meant I lost some images

 

[wagon_1.0]

Ah yes. Good for you

the pb app still lets you view your old images so I have just downloaded all my images

I've a wee bush question....

I have no bushes between my Subframe and chassis. Should I? Like a standard mini....

 

[Mini Mad Max]

I don't think anyone uses bushes. My subframe is solidly mounted to the frame

Mine too, I did add some then took them off again. Don't think they are needed.

 

[wagon_1.0]

With "solid bushes"? Or with nothing?

 

[250buggys]

With "solid bushes"? Or with nothing?

Nothing used between sub frame and chassis, just bolted up.

 

[wagon_1.0]

Hmm... OK. Thinking of shitting up stuff with a hole saw...

 

[wagon_1.0]
