So, just to finish off today's update. Having made a wooden template for the angle of the tube where it meets the base plate, we then cut the tube to the correct length and angle and voila!
The roll bar needed to be splayed out by 20mm to fit nicely on the base plates and door hinge plates and we did this using a big jack and a length of wood.
Now all I have to do is weld the tube to the base plate.
We also started to make up the rear gearbox mount out of billet. I'd bought a Cosworth mount and adapter plate but needed to pack it out a bit.
