Today we realize that there are some changes to the chassis and the rear bulk braces will be better welded to the chassis...

I think Tornado modified the chassis to accommodate the Coyote engine, so it doesn't need the fold in the rear panel unlike ours.

Your build is looking good.

There is no bend at the top of the rear bulkhead as this is a Coyote powered car.

More space is required higer up to clear the quad cam heads.

Also no bump is needed in the rear bulkhead to clear the water pump pulley so its just a flat panel for the engine cover in the bulkhead.

The bulkhead is different as is the engine bay.

The braces are made to bolt in so that they can be fitted after the panelling is completed to make the job easier and neater.

You are making fast progress now Oriol.

Thanks

Andy
 
Thanks guys, for the moment I am very proud with the build, now we are stopped because other works and we finish the rivets...in few days we restart
 
Congratulations Oriol (and team....). Now the engine is there inside. You have made a lot of things from the day of my visit to the garage.

The car is goin forward again.

We are now in a special moment in the car building, the engine electric circuit, is not easy to locate the best place for the control unit and the wiring must arrive to the parts…we are working, many things to connect
