Don, that's Ross Powers (MC2032), he is over a couple of times a week to help, have a beer, bring his latest home brew to sample, borrow the mill or lathe or deliver drawings of ideas we discussed over the aforementioned beers.... His cad drawings helped me develop the front roll hoop, getting a lot of it out of the already tight cockpit.
LMJ, Yea, it is not a big car... although it will be 5/8 of an inch taller than the original
but when you are building yours it will be easy to understand... when you need to add something after you make it very hard to get to the spot to weld. So far I've managed to not weld myself into a corner... except for the unavoidable design requirements.
If I could stand on my head... actuate the pedal by squeezing it between my knees and make great welds, then I wouldn't worry
I guess that's why these take time.... at least for me
