Trip to Tiger

The day finally come to take a trip up to Tiger to collect the chassis. Picked the van up at about 8 o'clock, 4 and a bit hours later I arrived at the village of Throney. We loaded the van up and headed over to Thorney Toll to take a look at some other Tigers and have a word with Paul. Both Paul and Jim were very friendly and allowed me to have a good nose around the garage taking photo's of an Avon that was being built.

After the long drive back (too long), I arrived back at about 7ish. Unloaded the van and had a look through the parts. I noticed that the throttle pedal from the floor mounted pedal kit was missing, I spoke to Laura today and she said she will sort it out for me. Sunday morning after returning the van I started to prep the chassis for painting as I bought the chassis bare steel from Tiger. I managed to get the first coat of primer done by the end of the day and thats how I left it.

Heres some photo's of saturday and the chassis so far:
