Re: The JagerBug - Club Racecar

the last bit of reinforcing on the seat

Image

and Frosty popped in to lend a hand

Image

the drivers side rear quarter being chopped away

Image

whilst Frosty did a spot of welding (excuse the pun)

Re: The JagerBug - Club Racecar

this area still needed a bit of tidying up

Image

Paul B cutting out the rest of the rear quarter and the rear valance in one go

Image

we're keeping some of the old valance for a bit of customising of the new valance emoticon watch this space

Image

it may not look it but this is much cleaner!

Re: The JagerBug - Club Racecar

Image

Image

Image

the rear quarter had to be bolted into place to hold it in place whilst welding

Re: The JagerBug - Club Racecar

Ash removing the foam from the drivers side

Image

not really sure what this pic shows, other than a bolt holding the quarter in place, this whole area still needs stripping

Image

ok folks, here's the beam at it's normal width

Image

and i'm sure there's a technical name for these bits but i don't know it, anyway, they were chopped off :lol:
