Re: NEW MONOCOQUE CHASSIS

Bill,
as with any well designed "system" the chassis is stronger than you would believe in every respect...
The suspension mounts for the front suspension use a mix of laser cut and CNC formed brackets along with CNC machined aluminum "pockets" that actually bolt to the chassis and create another complete"system" within themselves...

The rears mount to the "horsecollar" area as per the original...again overly strong.......as we are in America and we all know how the legal system works... [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Rest assured there has been some significant engineering gone into this chassis to encompass all the criteria GT40 replica guys want...including the look of the original ....
