Its NOT PINK !!!!!!. I've had some synthetic enamal made up in a colour called Regalia. You can brush paint it and it self flattens to leave no brush marks. Its as hard as nails once cured. Used it to repaint my Landrover years ago. Been across sahara and back.......still looks freshly applied. £10 quid a tin....enough to do two chassis' (3 coats) each.

Better than Hammerite and any colour you like !

I was going for a pink chassis with silver body plus of course the chrome front end and roll hoops, cam cover etc.
What do we think chaps ???? Cool or just sub zero ?

That brake pipe that run's down the chassis rail near the offside front wishbone will foul on the altenator if you are using a pinto.

I was wondering if it needed to be moved, Was kind of hoping that I didn't have to ! Oh well, ho hum,,,,,,

I will put a photo in my archive tonight hope it helps.

Viper,

are you saying the pipe can be left there ? I was going to use a smaller alternator/ home made bracket to give a bit of room anyway. I would be a little annoyed if I move it and then find that I had plenty of clearance once the engines in !!

If your using a Pinto you will need to hack an inch off that plate with the welded number on the underside (apparently)

I haven't tried the fit yet myself - this was advice from the "build manual" on the yahoo Tiger group

HTH

Cheers Viper, What alternator did you use ?. It appears to give plenty of space.
