but it wasent it was one of the old fiberglass signs that l have littering the place

it was flat but by pulling it round with a ratchet strap l managed to put a bend in it to match the profile l needed to clear the instrument pod, once its painted red it will look a custom made bonnet lol

 

[Baloo]

steering support bracket is welded and works well

also been having a fiddle with making some small rear panels to carry the rear lights, when l find some beefburger led type on ebay

 

[Baloo]

also been doing a bit on the wiring, its all starting to make sense now,
welded tabs on to fix both the fuse boxes to and starting to tidy up what l dont need

well a little to report but not much,
found a new daily driver for 300 quid just before xmas, still has 6 months tax and test but after that l think it might be donating its turbo k series engine and 5 speed auto box to my buggy :

 

[Baloo]

mean while on the buggy l just needed to bend up some tube for a rear bumper and l would be able to strip it put the final coat of paint on and re assemble, the hold up was l dident have a tube bender anymore so l had to make one ,

the short version

the long version in more detail is here
