Nothing to speak of. I was really shocked when I turned up to collect it.

Only a little bit of pitting round the rear springs but barely a mark considering :D Can't wait to cut my old one into bits and weigh it in. That'll be the cash to buy some beer for the weekend and a cake for Brian :rolleyes:

:cool:

I wonder ........ beer, cake, beer, cake, beer , cake......I wonder which end off the chaisis is which, :p:p:p:p:p:eek::eek::eek:
 
A bit of fast tracking with the galvanising company :) Collected yesterday, galvanised last night and it will be delivered on Monday morning. That is what I call a service :D :D :D

All in all - £103.16 to have it dipped. Shot blasting was £100 and diesel in the lorry to get it to and from the shot blasters was about £50. Chassis was £150 to buy. New engine brackets were about £45.

Less than £500 for a practically new galvanised chassis is a bargain if you ask me :D

Will pop a few pics up on Monday when it gets delivered.

Where did you get the engine brackets please mate??

They sell them on eBay. Or you could get them from Richards Chassis. Or you could make them.

I can even cut my old ones off my rotted rear end chassis if you want them. Engine brackets are not rotten, only the rear end and up to the front doors :eek:
 
Didn't get round to taking a pic yesterday but here it is.....
