Getting a drill between the chassis for the catch tank.

[CtrMint]

Hi All,

I need to drill either new holes for new rivets or drill existing rivets out for the oil catch tank located forward near side.

The question I have however is how do you get a drill between the chassis top cross members and drill straight.  I only have a smallish Dewalt cordless drill and its fairly small but there seems no way I can fit the drill in there between the chassis tubes.

I've got to be missing something here,????

A right-angle drill attachment is probably what you need: https://www.amazon.co.uk/slp/right-angle-drill-attachment/zbz9eyg632kw97f

Radiator back out and go in from the front?

and if neccesary, use a stub drill (shorter than standard). (try ebay)

ahh man really, thought I was done with the radiator and bobbins 

Mind I still dont think I could drill straight.

I remember that bit of my build.  I used a right angle air drill.   I purchased it a few years ago when i needed to drill out a seat cap head bolt from under the car, been a very useful tool since.
