Your oval looks hot.
I'd admire the work you're doing. It makes me want to do another oval.

Just finished the plates for the inside of the shocker towers.
Gone with the factory look with a nice fitting around the beam at the bottom of the tower.
Used the bottom of an old beam for this.

This is the view from the end looking down.
As you can see the tower is a lot thinner than standard.
Just have to weld it on now.

Iv`e fitted dual circuit with 19mm master.
This will help things pull up in time.:o

thanx for the inspiration.
this is what mine looks like now.
I bought home some MWS BRM's when I was o.s. last year.
I'm piecing together an engine.
92mm Mahle's, 72mm Treuhaft welded, Engle W125, 40 IDF's. autocraft. 1.3:1's,
heavily sculpted 040's with 37 x 32 's
hopefully it goes together o.k.

After not doing much for a while (work around the house etc to be done) I`ve started some more work on the oval.
Fitted the front end today and well the bloody thing fits!
And so it should after all the work etc.
As you can see it has disc brakes now aswell as being low.😎

That looks f*@king hot Nath! I like the stock rims better than the BRM's.
Keep-up the good work....forget the house, hell, I design houses all day, I'd rather tinker with a dumped Oval.
