Your neighbours must find it quite an odd sight, wheeling a car down the drive on a spit and rolling it over lol. Fair play for the effort going into it.
Yeah, the jig hasnt turned out exactly as i thought. I think there is probably some adjustments of the mountings i need to do but she is a heavy shell. With all the glass, panels & interior removed, i think it would be a different story. I did some adjustment on it today and its better although id agree on the upright bracing comment. Ive a couple of ideas for strengthening gussetts. Base plates i think need to be thicker too. Either way, as you said, it does what i need. It is useful having it on wheels though! Always nice to wheel it out into the sun.
As for the effort, it's always what i wanted to do with the car, so for me, its just a process....
