Brooklands Bentley

Fixed up the rear chassis section today and got the rear axle mounted up. Mocked up the engine mounting location and tried a couple of difference configurations for the torque converter. I can mount the engine forwards, in which case it would need to be higher to avoid clashing with the drive sprocket, or further back and lower down I'm leaning towards further back as the greater head clearance will make the tail easier to make.

Frustratingly I spent half the day just trying to find the parts that I had stashed. It's been so long since I looked at this project that I could not find everything. Still got some stuff to find.

Tomorrows task is to mount the engine and rear wheels and hopefully get the bulkhead and belly pan frames bent up
