So another update...

This afternoon I finally was free form school so I could work on my car.. Lot's of the prepwork was done on sundayafternoon (in an cold garage -> the heater was dead)

At first we welded up the right box on the rear wheelarce.


At the other side an backplate was welded in.. An yet another piece of foam was burned out :twisted:

The sideplate of this boxe is also made right and will be welded in tomorrow

Also we welded the tubes from a-to b-pilar on there "footplates"


Also the left side is welded on the "footplates"

And the last thing that we did today was beginning at the making of our strutbrace. On every plate will be attached 3 tubes (if everything goes as planned)


I hope ya like it!!
Wiebrand

Yeah look easy...but I can tell it's not The real making is quite simple... But the thinking of where you want to put that, what is the point when I make that there, which form, how should I make that.. that cost a lot of thinking and time..

But hell yeah.. in dutch: Met gezond verstand kom je een heel eind! (With healthy thinking you come an hole end)

Hey mates.. It's been an long time but here's an other update.

At first we had drawn where the tubes will go trough the "dashboardmetal" and cut that out.

At this point I was lucky that I already had removed the "freshairbox" that is hanging in the boot under the frontwindow because otherwise the cage couldn't be coupled to the frontstruts.

I also was obliged to remove the trunkhangs (do you call them so??). Tja The cage didn't fitted otherwise so hell yeah than the hangs has to get lost :wink:

Some pic of the tube that goes from the cage to the frontstruts seeing from the trunk

Two brackets made and welded on the plates to make the strutbrace.
