I managed a second day of work on the TVR chassis which largely consisted of find a rusty bit, cut it out, weld in a new bit, move on to the next rusty bit!

| Left hand diagonal support offered up |
And right hand too!
New rear cross member and supporting tubes are held in place with bungees prior to tack welding
Freshly welded!
Clean and shiny!!!
Close-up...not the best welding in the world but I think it will do...
Rear cross-member welded in place
The next chunk I've cut out....gulp!
I'm going to have to order some more 1.5" tubing, I've nearly used all of the 6 metres I originally bought! Will also need to purchase some of the smaller diameter tubing to replace the cut away triangulation struts.

All in all another very productive day's work!! Both cross-members were carefully levelled before final welding.....lots of measuring, checking and re-checking...
