Re: LOLA T70 scratch build...

Scott,

many thanks for your kind offering. IŽm using many pics, some basic measurements, and a comprehensive folder of shop notes containing drawings and sketches etc.

As far as I can see thereŽll be hardly any blind rivets to be used. Maybe for the battery tray or for the fixture of the rad housing.

Two friends of mine (engineers at a well known Stuttgart car company)
already identified the highly stressed components of the chassis and so there only bucked rivets will be used together with doublers. In addition to that the chassis will be glued together with epoxy.

Best,

Marcus
