thanks for the comments. this is the pre or less completed rear. a couple of brackets and supports for the fuel tanks, but she's not far off. next job is to get the engine and box lined up so I can make the engine mounts.

a good day today, got the engine and box joined and in situ. the gearbox mounts will hold it all in line while I fabricate the engine mounts. Ill also do the rear bulkhead at the same time, and line up ready for the rear suspension to be fabricated.

started on the engine mounts. got one side done, the other side will be trickier because of the dry sump oil pump.

around the bulkhead. Ive got the dry sump tank, and a lot of plumbing, plus the fuel system. access should be good though. It helps that the engine is not only light, but pretty compact. N/A too, so less complicated. I think the gear linkage is going to be fun though!!!

thanks for the comments. Appreciated. I managed to get a couple of hours this afternoon to attack the bulkhead. went pretty well, got most of it shaped and tacked in.
should be able to get to the workshop first thing, and get it all seam welded. another job out the way!!!
