The wait is over as the chassis arrived this morning. Can't wait to get started.

Not sure why but I assumed the luggage containers were part of the new chassis. I was a little surprised that the luggage containers weren't already attached. Oh well no problem. Guess its a call to the factory to order the containers.

Yes got the alloy panels. I've been collecting cereal boxes for over 3 months for templates.

Response from factory...

No the new style luggage containers aren't welded to the chassis and don't come included with the new style uprated chassis. They cost £160 plus VAT.

They are still riveted onto the chassis later on in the build process (refer to the build CD for build sequence). The new style luggage containers are now manufactured from a higher grade of aluminium with increased wall thickness and increased length
