Now moving on to the "frame" and suspension and steering..
First an "upside down" pic of the early construction.

ThenI moved on to the suspension itself

I discovered later that the wishbones were "silver" and painted them "aluminium".

I own a V12 Le Mans Celebration Coupe, No 96 of the 100 produced to celebrate Jag's winning return to sports car racing, and Le Mans in particular. When Jag sent the basic car down to TWR, they changed the shocks so specially rated Bilsteins, and in honour of them, I've decided to modify mine to match!

Then, this as far as I've got with the parts I have, adding the anti-roll bar and the steering rack, the extended frame in front, with part of the cooling system.

I should get another set of issues next week.

These let me complete the cooling system.Cool
