Well here we have 'yet another Pop' its a '55 Pop 103e that I am building on a strict budget for my daughter ( in other words daddy has to buy all the parts and do all the work for nothing ) It came to me as a very well stripped body / chassis. It is running a Viva Ha front and Reliant Scimitar rearaxle, 2 litre Pinto and 4 speed box. I have boxed the chassis and just doing the bulkhead and floorpan at the moment.

and another pic, as it came with no interior panels and one tatty passenger seat to work from there is some guesswork on the shape of the floorpan shape and position.

I must be getting old as I have been struggling today dropping the Scimitar rear axle off on my own, with the help of my trolley jack for 'finish' welding and cleaning / painting then refitting.
