I think he's on to something there Steve. You should fit one of those. Then when we're piling down one of Phil's playgrounds you will know your altitude and glide angle.

At this stage I could drive it around ideally to check for leaks and run the new big end bearings in, its bloody fast sat on chassis rail with a prop shaft too close to your arse!

Steering column was left until i knew exactly how much to shorten it by and the honda fuel tank was only used until i learnt how to alloy weld.
Will easily pull 80mph. :D

Day 5 of no work, done all the stuff on the house that I can with available materials now bored out of my mind.
Is this what retirement is like?
Open your eyes and you see what is in front of you, open your mind and you see a bigger picture but open your heart and you see a whole new World.

Think I'd just bolt a recaro to that and leave it as it is. Looks a laugh.
