Looks like a great piece of workmanship. How much do you think you have saved by diy?

Hi Del, last time I looked up on a price on a new chassis it was £1800 delivered, so about 1300 quid.

the chassis looks really good
The engine looks great too! Is that more of the 'Wife's' work?
Rgds,

Hi Gordon, I spray pianted the engine, it gave a better coverage. But she has got the job of painting the sump (black).

The Galvanizing has blocked the four threaded holes for the steering relay securing ring, I'm not sure of what size tap I will need, I was brought up with metric so this is a massive learning curve for me.
