Scattershields

550

OK, fresh back from the scrutineering meeting yesterday, decided to get cracking. Went out and sourced some steel for the scatter-shield, and the RHS braces that were discussed, and also some sheet metal for fabricating up the new bulkheads and patching a few bits of tin worm here and there.



Also bought all of the stuff to build my wiring loom with - nice aircraft kill switches and pushbuttons. Even got some stuff to make up a DIY dyno controller box for the DTA EFI unit I am running.

Here's the competed RHS braces. Still need to add flatbar underneath to tie it to the pan.





Also welded up the IRS pivots



And started on the scattershield.



Day off tomorrow - got to go drink beer- it's Australia day!!

Found and purchased Beetle

Things look like there coming along. Will this come to the states for speedweek or any events on the slatflats?

I would love to take it to the states for speedweek, and probably will at some point, but at this stage I'm not sure if it will be this year. There was talk of some guys getting together for a reduced rate on shipping, but will have to see.



The event I'm prepping this for is Speedweek here in Australia at Lake Gairdner - the Aussie version of speedweek. There's more info on the DLRA website if you're interested - http://www.dlra.org.au
