Yes Eddie the pan is welded to the body. It was this or a compromise which is to bold it to the pan. I went for the no compromise version Grin

@ Richie I'm sorry but he's a coffee drinker so the caffeine determines where all the stuff gets placed. Grin Grin

Hey Micheal

More high quality work from Jim there, your car will be killer by time he has finished with it. Cool

Are you having Jim do the Ali tinwork for you too or are you doing it yourself?

Looks like this is the perfect time to hang the gearbox from the cage and loose the frame horns.

Yes that is the plan. Original frame horns are already gone and replaced by tubing.
