| You were always on my grind... |
 |
This was supposed to be a breath-taking
action shot of Chris grinding, with sparks flying all over the workshop
(and me!). Instead, we have a picture of Chris and Panda and about 3 sparks
if you look really, really closely...who's idea was it to have a white
board behind him? |

| Surf's up! |
 |
Another fine action shot. This
time we have Chris demonstrating the supreme strength of the Panda by surfing
on it. I had already attempted this and as it survived me, it was a fair
bet that Chris was safe enough.
After this we did both stand on it and jump
up and down for a bit - I think the welds are strong enough. Sadly, as
I don't have a video capture, I can't include Linda's wonderful video of
me surfing on the chassis! *cough* |

| You've been framed, Mr Panda |
| The chassis is finally completed.
As you can see, we now have all four side impact bars in place (yes, the
Panda has SIPS) and a cross-bar in the middle of the body. This picture
also shows it bolted to the base. The rear connectors are hinged so that
we can raise the chassis for maintenance. The Panda is starting to develop
so weight now, so that is good as well. |
