As with Bill, I am surprised to hear your Comet is on a short chassis! As the component gear was essentially Nippy, one would expect a long chassis underneath. With regards to Dennis' position - '24 chassis are very hard to find now - I'm still looking after 20 years!! Go with strengthening if you want authenticity. You can replace it when (if) you find another... The HT bolts I plan on using have no alen key, but a square section under the head. Some of these have letters of the manufacturer that are best ground from the top. (keeps the purists guessing a little longer) Cheers Courtenay Kiwi in Oz
