So to continue from the last update, to make sure that we don´t break anymore welds some gussets were made up and welded into the bottom rails.
Then Jim decided that maybe just maybe it would be a good idea to go over every single weld on the chassis, just for good measure. So I guess we won't be having anymore issues with those for the time being.
Steve had to then rub down the whole thing ready for spraying which meant having to turn the chassis upside down, So it had to be dragged outside first while Steve masked up the inside of the trailer so as not to paint the parts which didn´t need painting.
Next Steve ordered the paint and just for a change he decided on "RED" as opposed to the previous black.
During the week in the evenings Steve got to work with the spray gun and painted the bottom of the chassis, it was then turned over again and the top half sprayed, a quick rub down and a second coat applied, and the chassis is now ready (excuse cheap pun).
As can be seen in the next photo the red on the chassis is a different shade of red compared to the red of the bodywork, something to be looked at next year, also Steve managed to paint another item in the trailer.
Now it is time to put the car back together and the race is on to complete it in time for the biggest and best race meeting of the year (in my humble opinion that is) Dragstalgia, time to get the trusty Yamaha Super Tenere ready for another adventure ride back to England
