The next project.

Post by db replicas »

Hopefully I'll have a 289FIA in the not too distant future.
My CAD guy has finished converting all the paper drawings to something a laser cutter can use.
once the laser cutting of the chassis brackets is done I can start putting it together. :D
I just need a body that is the right shape now, but that is in hand all being well. :D

I see you've added the aftermarket suspension flanges to take the wishbone mounts out of cantilever.

Hi Roger.
Yes, I'll be using sphericals on the suspension arms, and they offer no sympathy to the std chassis brackets.
