Re: Lola Tub Repair

Jim, the door hinges look strong enough to be used on a Mac Truck! I hope they are aluminum. Looks like a nice set up though!

Bill
The stress on them is very high. That is the only place they're driven and the whole door including internal bracing and electric windows works on them. This Babe is not quite as sevlt as she once was.

Re: Lola Tub Repair

Wow, that is by far a piece of art.
Being the car I am trying to build it gives me a craving to get started, but I am still trying to source parts. Do you have any info that could help, please.

Re: Lola Tub Repair

Thats the problem I'm having, finding a body. The tub would be nice to have, but if I need to I'll build it.

And that windshield looks like a pain to source out.

Can't wait to see the final build pics.
