Finished radiator mounts

I spent some time on Sunday in the garage finishing up the radiator mounts. The flip-front will also hinge on these mounts.

I was torn between making them lightweight so that they would easily break off in case of a minor collision (saving the chassis) and making them beefy enough to jack the car up on them (and hence strong enough to cope with low driveways etc where they might get bumped).

I went for beefy in the end, and added a cross brace in the direction needed to provide strength for lifting the car up.

The anti-roll bar (sway bar) mounts to that plate seen on the chassis rails, so I couldn't put any more bracing there..

I tapped the tube so the radiator can bolt to it.

Bonus picture: See how I mounted the oil tank overflow and water overflow tanks. I had Daniel weld the two together so I could use a single mounting point.
