The first job on the assembly was to mount the floor. I have decided to both rivet and glue the panel for added stiffness. After spending an age drilling the paint out of all the rivet holes the first major job was to key the paint surface ready for the glue. I did this with a scotch pad as you can see below. I had thought about not painting all of the surfaces that would be glued but this was going to cause more problems than it was worth!

The Chassis is Painted!
Monday, June 8th, 2009Well, the painter stuck to his word, in fact he actually did it cheaper than he said, and the chassis is back! You can see below that the colour match is pretty good, apparently its Izuzu orange or something (I have the code), to the panels, but I think the camera has bleached it a bit!
