[SwedishBob 24 1 Cars]

So what happened this weekend?

 

Started with testing my new arches. It's going to be really nice.

 

All rust removed and new fresh plates in place.

 

Then I completed the welding in the engine bay.

 

Started to seam weld the inside.

 

So it's now FINALLY time to order a roll cage.

How's it going with this project? Are you getting your cage from Gus?

How's it going with this project? Are you getting your cage from Gus?

 

Haven't been in the garage for a few weeks now. No Guss cage will order from Finess.

But the cage money was used for the GAZ groupbuy, so it will take some more time before I order the cage.

Have also checked prices to get the cage mounted.

No progress in the garage this far. But I received my GAZ coilovers today.

Thanks Cybernck for a really great group buy!!

No cage ordered yet but I received a Sparco seat this weekend. It's abit too wide for me,

so I'm going to use it as a passenger seat.

Are you near Stockholm?

 

I'm about 80 km from Stockholm in a small town called Strängnäs.

Have started to modify the firewall to get some space for the exhaust manifold.

 

[SwedishBob 24 1 Cars]

Now I know what I'm going to do on my vacation.

I'm going to mount my rollcage. Ordered it today and will pick it up within 1-2 weeks.

No the firewall is not finished yet. Will proberly do it on Friday.

I'm sure that there is better ways to modify it but it's the first time I do anything like this.

The rollcage is now in the garage.

 

It will keep me busy the whole summer.....

[SwedishBob 24 1 Cars]

I bought my self a new welder the other day so all I need now is some time in the garage..

[SwedishBob 24 1 Cars]

The firewall is now finished and I have start planing for the cage.

My brother had his Punto GT in the garage the other day so I had to test if my wheels fitted over his brakes.

Seems to work.

It have finally happend something in the garage.

Got the first pieces of the cage in place today.

 

 

But it takes alot of measuring before you cute the pipes.

 

 

And finally. Be careful when you are welding.

[SwedishBob 24 1 Cars]

Haven't got time to proceed with the cage but I bought some strengthning plates from ebay the other day.

 

[SwedishBob 24 1 Cars]

Received my plates last wednesday.

Pic1, Pic2

They are really thick!! Don't think that 5 mm is enough.

 

Hope to get some time with the car on Sunday.
