please excuse the messy garage but I finally got my Luego Seven to the roller state. Still need to do the panhard rod mount. I think I'll wait until the last moment to position that. Couldn't resist tossing on some of the bodywork and wheels to see how it will look. Nothing is attached which is why its all misaligned.

Suspension bolts aren't on in the picture but I just got all them in. That was much harder than I thought. The bottom ones have to go in first otherwise they are impossible to put in (guess which I put in first).

I still need to measure things up to drill the holes for mounting the engine mounts but it looks like everything will fit. Gearbox is in. The exhaust manifold is looking a little iffy so custom headers might be needed. (Carbs will move over a little once that wood bit is removed - engine will go down slightly.)

After that its a whole huge pile of little jobs - mostly plumbing - brake lines, clutch lines, fuel lines and of course all the electrical. I should have it ready just in time for winter!
