I wish I had the space and time to have more than one project on the go. It's hard enough finding time for the one I do have.
I'm very slowly doing the chassis on my Thames and I noticed that you have removed all the rivets and cross members. I thought of doing this but haven't as I thought it best to leave it in tact. Is there a possibility for the chassis to be warped once put back together with I'm guessing high tensile bolts with split pins or nylock or?
What other considerations should be made before pulling the chassis to bits?
The cross members were all bolted to the chassis using high tensile bolts with plain nuts and spring washers. The exposed thread on al the bolts was very rusty so it was quicker and easier to cut the nut or head off each bolt. We used new high tensile nuts and bolts with spring washers when we reassembled the chassis so it is the same as it was originally.
