Mehari isn't light either, and this one is all light sheet metal so might even be lighter than a mehari.

Guys, when its finished i will get it weighed at a weigh bridge and compare its weight to a standard 2cv.
Im hoping that it will be slightly lighter as i only have half the body (NO ROOF OR DOOR TOPS ETC) and it wont have much in the way of interior trim/panels etc
Did anyone see it at Winchester at the British National Show??
I would apppreciate any feedback on what you saw (GOOD OR BAD  ).
Cheers, Tony.

Oh, and the only piece of glass will be the windscreen as it will not have a roof or side windows, so that will make it a lot lighter as well

Hello Joe. Ive done a bit more n the rear end and today fitted a universal joint on the old steering column so that i can put it in a slightly different angle. Didnt take any photos tho so will have to do those next time im over the workshop.

The latest update====
[img]
Done a bit more on the rear panel ready for the towbar and the boot lid to be fitted.
[/img]
Also capped the top of the dashboard ready to mount the folding windscreen.
[img]
Ive tried to make the dash as smooth as posible and with as little clutter as i can. The original shelf will be plated over to smooth it off also.
[/img]
Final part for now, the Instrument cluster. Ive made a new panel and moved the speedo to the left slightly. Down the right side of the speedo will be fitted three warning lamps, Generator/Oil/Rear fog. The rear fog light switch and and ignition will be fitted on the right side of the Cluster. I have also fitted a Universal Joint at the base of the steering coloumn to allow the wheel to fit closer to the dash panel.
Next time, more work on the rear and boot lid!!!

Done a bit more on the Kubel.
Finished the dash, nice and simple

Done a bit on the bonnet frame and front section.

[img]
Then done the rear section. Just gotta do the detailed bits to finish it off. Gotta fit a fake fuel filler and bulge where the tank should be underneath.

More soon [/img]

LOL , calm down guys. Yes for some of you the wheel is on the 'wrong side' but as this will be used mainly in the UK i chose to leave it as it is. It also probably makes it the only Right Hand Drive 'Kubel' ever made,lol (and yes i know its not a real one ).
