Classic Car Developments Chassis #3

Thanks Brian.

 

[Joel K]

Congrats on getting your car on the road and legal. The car looks great Brian.

 

And finally, on the road.

 

[JimmyMac]

A great day !
Congratulations and felicitations Brian,

For one, I am going to miss this build log.

 

[Neil]

I like the color! Looks great.

 

[Doc Watson]

Brian, car looks superb...

 

First major trip (over 300 miles) to attend a track day. A few minor niggles (too much rear brake bias, an exhaust manifold leak, a tappet adjustment needed, leaks like a sieve in the rain), but generally happy with the way it went. Handles well, pulls like a train, and is surprisingly comfortable. Huge fun.

 

At its first show. No prizes, but generated lots of interest.

 

[Graham Endeacott]

Massive achievement, well done.

Regards,

Graham

 

[Ian Anderson]

Well done Brian. Looks stunning

 

[NickD]

Great work, looks magic !

 

[Kevin L]

Absolutely stunning.. what an incredible car. Congratulations, quite a journey

 

Coming up for 2000 miles and dozens of little niggles rectified as they have cropped up. It is finally at the stage where I can take it for a drive and just park, close the garage door, and walk away, rather than thinking "I must look at/attend to X, Y or Z".

Sister-in-law's Suzuki Swift towering over the 40 in my brother's garage.

 

Feel a bit like a proud Dad. Car got its first award yesterday at a Best of British Motoring event, along with a 1900 Wolsley. Fastest and slowest maybe?

 

[Graham Endeacott]

Well done.

Regards,

Graham

 

[Ian Anderson]

Well done Brian, good to see you are getting out and about in the car!

"Feel a bit like a proud Dad." ??
Deservedly so mate.

 

Having resisted the temptation to take the 40 to the supermarket during lockdown I was keen to see if 7 weeks of inactivity had adversely affected the battery. Apparently not. After a few turns to get enough fuel through the system she was good to go.

 

And some video of the event.
