I'll be interested to see how it turns out. Are you going to machine it out of square stock?

planing to, the machines at school don't have 4 jaws so i'll weld some round bar onto it then machine it down and then part the round off once it's machined down

decided to fit my firewall plate this afternoon, short 5 minute job.... NOT!
plate by it's self   started by cutting the firewall/fiber s**t, made this all look neat,    next pre drilled the holes, didn't get a picture of it then went to put it on the car couldn't get it to slide over the little pipe  eventually got it to get on and sit right, had to slowly crank the screws on with an impact driver and it finally went on and sat right  many swear words were said this afternoon also clear pictures of the pedal box

painted my pedal box tonight and will fit it tomorrow
 made up a design for the centre console due to manual surrounds becoming harder to come by and people more desprate for them, will make up a jig at school and bends some bar around and make it suit design

well i got my pedal box bolt into the car and i started peicing it back together, and i touched the breaks and my interiour lights became brighter and then i could here a ticking noise? so i've checked the earth and started tightening it down but dropped the socket down the back of the dash and cracked the s**t for the day and will let it sit for a little, till i decided to go work on it again

well since putting the car back togethert when the car is off the radio sounds fine but as soon as the motor is running it's gets a static/high piched back noise to it,
any ideas of what it could be? |

things aren't as bad as first seemed,
walked into the carport tonight and found the inner light of the 2 that was on the side of impact was undamaged had a another highbeam light here cause the one on the car had a crack in it,will have a think of how to make up my own mounting, will either be firbreglassed or made up from steel drivers  passenger  chopped the top off and it's currently sitting on the typhoon front bar sorry ii'm using my phone for pictures cause the camera won't work   also scored this for my car
