Re: Getting started on a 917K

Yes The fan lined up perfect, The car actually raced two weekends against David Piper car here in South Africa early feb this year . Fully functional . The Chassis has been a problem though. The engine is being pulled and installed in a Bailey Edwards Chassis and will hit the track in about 6 weeks time the Body is being painted in the no 22 Martini Colours, iwth rear tail fins etc.
