Glassfiber work done

I’ve finished the glass-fiber work including rebuilding the transmission tunnel. The first picture shows the transmission tunnel.

I had saved the bigger chunks of the trans tunnel but had to recreate some smaller more curved pieces. In the picture you can also see that some of the inner doorstep has been re-created. The white piece of cardboard on the right, below the steering wheel, is a template for new metal “door post” that I want to install before completing the doorsteps; Having the door just hanging on the glass-fiber might not be that good an idea.
The second picture shows the rear of the cabin. Just below the center you might be able to spot a seat belt mount.
The underside of the car is also finished. Here’s a picture of the car on the side showing the new floor and jointing of floor and body.

The last picture for today is just a closer look at some of the jointing of chassis and body.


Since I took the last two pictures I sanded down the underside and jointing to make it (almost) ready for paint.

I’m now working on making the body ready for painting. I’ll keep you posted – eventually :-)
