That cute little dog will scare off any rats or snakes, burglers, etc.  She is worth her weight in dog food.

In the past there has been a discussion on belt length and materials specs. I couldn't find the post I wanted by searching, probably not the right terms.   I don't know how long your belts are but I would keep them as short as possible. Look at the belt stretch on Danny Thompson's Mustang crash on youtube.
On my roadster, at three meets, had to change belt routing or length three different times to suit the inspector ( 1st and 3rd the same). Problem solved with HANS and new bar welded in.
Main thing is,we want you to be SAFE.

Hey Ron, thanks brother.
The belts will be very short.
There's about 4 inches including the mount to where it touches my shoulder.

Doug, I've had that diagram from Simpson for a while but thank you anyway.

Hey Mike.
Note to self.
Lets insure a deacent campsite sleeping quarters doggy pool and amunities for the kids at Hakskeen.
They have to go with

[tauruck]

I should have built an ark instead.

MTN built some very nice ablution blocks at the Pan but not
sure they'll allow the rooster.

Mike, Smoochie and the tub looking good. Now Amy wants a Jack ....We got too many critters as is. Live by the book for belt mounting. saved my hiney with the techies. You, Joe and Neal inspire me. can't wait to start my car. God willing we will hit Amys goal in a year or two then I'll be hitting you guy up for advice.

[tauruck]

A Jack is the coolest critter you could have.
I wish Purina would start Jack Russel hurdle racing scene here.
I'd be an "owner" with a 5 Jack team.

Frank, patience is the key and that has come from Mr. Burkland, George Poteet, Bobby Moore, Danny Thompson,
Buickguy3, Sid Gyde and countless other informed people.

You'll get there man.

It's a rare fool that takes on a project this big as a 'one man band', you have to want it bad play a lot of different instruments for a long time.
I see one of those fool's in the mirror every morning too Mate.

I second that Sid!

[tauruck]

I won't even look in the mirror!.

I don't have a bridge left to burn.

I'm going to get a soccer ball and name it "WILSON".

[kiwi belly tank]

I could send you a pic of mine! Wilson that is not the liner.
 I'm actually hanging some body skins on the big pile of parts now, only waited a year for them! The rear O/D unit is apparently done & the front one should be done next week.
  Sid.

[tauruck]

Good to hear you finally got some of the body work.
You've waited long enough.
Sid, I'd love to see some photos.

[kiwi belly tank]

"Some of the body skins" is correct, some were obviously so bad I refused them. I'm now trying to make the chassis fit the panels. I'll mock it up & send you some in a few days.
  Sid.

[tauruck]

Thanks Sid.


A little more progress.
While waiting for resin to cure I had time to fit a cross tube to
the chassis brace behind the roll cage.
 After fish mouthing the tube
and a test fit it occurred that there was a perfect space for the water header tank.

I cut the tube and welded in a piece of plate sourced from some 5" tubing I had.
It worked out great and I killed two birds with one stone, not an everyday occurrence
on a liner.
