The Odyssey Continues...

The chassis finally in my garage. Please excuse the mess - I did say I just moved in! The nosecone (Westfield) is resting on the front and you can see the Escort axle standing on end in the back of the garage.

Front quarter showing some of the triangulation. The F27 is a somewhat different structure to the Locost.

Front on. Note the double thickness top rails. This would add substantially to the longitudinal strength, but I wonder how it affects torsional?

The "blue-top" 16v 4A-GE and T50 from the rear. It is dangling from my birthday present - a brand new engine crane.

Side on. You can see how the tunnel slopes up slightly and tapers in at the rear.

The 4A-GE sitting on the floor beside some more of the wheels and tyres thrown in with the deal. OK for rolling around on while building, but not much else.
