I just had another look at the first page of this thread. That's fantastic given what you started with. I bet you're glad you didn't bin it now!

How come you're not putting runners on it?

I am putting floor runners on it.... I'll just be doing it the hard way though.

I have only last week drilled all the floor runner holes and brake pedal hole for my 90 Racer which went for paint today.
I have no desire to drill a freshly painted floor again :oops:

Amazing transition though ;)

I pre drilled all of the holes in mine. When it came back from the painters most of them had disappeared.

Well I've strayed off from my initial plan of an original resto & it's evolving into a bit of a hot rod / street racer build, with a Reed Malossi MHR 221 motor - wide rear tyre conversion & hydraulic front disc brake front end...
I tried the motor in tonight to see how the wide back tyre lines up & it's clearing everything nicely, but is still sitting slightly offset to the spare wheel side... Hopefully I'll get the fork in over the weekend so I can then check wheel alignment.
