So, with the exhaust more or less in place, all it needed
was a mount near the back & I could put it back on it’s wheels & drive
it – it’s still waiting the tail pipes, but with the rear valence removed the
exhaust was clear of the car.
The exhaust was passing the main chassis rail behind the
wheel, so having found a short length of aluminium channel left over from the
alternator mount, I cut it to suit, squirted it with black pant & with a
little sikaflex as jointing, riveted it on. As it doesn’t show up terribly well
in the wheel arch (this is a good thing) I offer a CAD drawing so you know what
it looks like.
I’ve also cut & shaped the tubing for the tail pipes
& will drop them into Ashby Welding this evening as this section will be
visible & my welding REALLY isn’t good enough for that.
Assuming I don’t find that the tyre hits under full bump,
the car’s drivable again. Hoorah!
