I have decided how the front suspension will be mounted and where the new frame tubes will run but I am waiting on the steel to arrive so it is a good time to get a few of the smaller jobs [of which there are many] done and make some decisions on what other mods will be needed to make the car safer to drive,
The brake, clutch and throttle pedals had been cobbled together and poorly engineered the pedal pivot was a bolt without any way to add grease and the pedals had been cut and welded, the mounts to the frame had broken away at the joint so I have removed the lot and ordered a set of after market Wilwood pedals with a brake balance bar and a full set of new Girling master cylinders. this is more than I was planing to do but will be a lot safer in the long run.
Here is something I need a little input on from any racers or builders out there the car never had a sway bar fitted but the herald suspension A arms I am fitting have mounts for a sway bar so the question is will one be needed and should I fit one, there will be limited suspension movement so I am not too worried about body roll but if I need one now is the time to fit it. feel free to let me know your thoughts on this.
