Quoted from rotoflex Yep. And since this won't be concourse, nearly no-one will notice. Although, I've got another block, transmission, and a D type OD. Down the road I plan on rebuilding these and fitting them. After all, I have the O in my commission number. May as well make it OD sometime. ~Hazen - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Contact me if you need a hinge cover for your GT6 3rd brakelight option now available. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 67 Mk1 GT6 (rebuild here--> http://www.club.triumph.org.uk/cgi-bin/forum10/Blah.pl?m-1397446003/ <--) {{{My apologies.

Got the driveline and the swaybar mounted today. I wanted to start it too but ran into troubles. Before I dropped the engine on the chassis I had a control board set up with the voltage regulator , starter solenoid, ignition switch, and tachometer so I could run the engine off the car. Unfortunately I did not make a diagram of how I had it set up and when my son helped me take it off of the cart he disconnected a few wires. I need to research where they go now as the wiring was not coded like a wiring diagram and I can't find my notes. I didn't tag the individual wires either. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Contact me if you need a hinge cover for your GT6 3rd brakelight option now available. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 67 Mk1 GT6 (rebuild here--> http://www.club.triumph.org.uk/cgi-bin/forum10/Blah.pl?m-1397446003/ <--) {{{My apologies.

Okay, I think I have the final design for the rotisserie. I've already got most of the tub support completed. I still need to build the lower cradle (or whatever it may be called). It may end up with a few more modifications, plus I did not include casters in the drawings. The pivot point will probably be 1/2" bolts of some sort, with an 8 (or more) point stop system, so I can rotate it full 360 degrees and stop pretty much where I need. I took measurements from a friend's already researched data, and the pivot point will be at 10" from the bottom of the tub support, with the bottom of the tub support being about 36" from the ground, needed clearance for me to roll my chassis underneath, hence the inverted Y shape on the one end. Design is based on items I have on hand. I'll get some measurements up later. This is just a basic idea and nowhere drawn to scale, so it may look a little tall. The wire-frame pics show the rough design and individual components better than the completed assembly. You can see from my previous photos where each of the brackets in the drawing mount to the tub. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Contact me if you need a hinge cover for your GT6 3rd brakelight option now available. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 67 Mk1 GT6 (rebuild here--> http://www.club.triumph.org.uk/cgi-bin/forum10/Blah.pl?m-1397446003/ <--) {{{My apologies.
