    Cast Sway Bar Mounting Plates

    The sway bar mounting plates on ealry cars are a bit weak and need reinforcing.

    There are some cast plates around which are for the bodyshells with the wider seat pan but they are tricky to fit to the earlier shell an s ahev to be set an an angle from the vertical.

    just finished the patterns to produce some investment cast steel parts in the next few weeks.

    Well done Chris! They're over due...

    My car is road only, so the factory units will be fine; but I know the racers will appreciate these.

    Don't be so sure John. The road cars bust sway bar mounts, too. I once broke one going over an uneven surface in parking lot once...
