Get a good bender and some no.6 fence wire to bend up what you want before bending the tube itself and patience

I like your work 

Going to have to see this beast in person one day

I’d love to know where you are finding these nice early girl cars, I’n on the lookout for a decent rolling body.  Not worried about running gear as I have donor car already for that.

Patience…….

I’ve got a bender and double flaring kit (ebay special but should still work), I thought you’d form the lines on the car and bend as you went, but you’d recommend using a small guage wire to work out the bends first and then start forming the line before putting the whole lot on in one go?

I’d clip the front line to underside of radiator support also.

Hey Heron yes as once you have a bend in tube your not going to get it straight again , so when you bend up the wire then just trace it bend for bend to the tube if you search on you tube I’m sure there will be some thing

[Judge1 FrazerParticipant new zealand1983 VB LSA MG9 6060 6 speed View build HERE Member since: February 5, 2016 Posts: 775]

Hey cava  Yeah I do like it that way used about 600mm more tube but better than in engine bay

hey Immortality finding the VH was just luck really  the green Vb took about six months to find but once done I am selling the vb, the Vh is just more fresh to start from and means I’m not changing a factory v8 sle
