Well its time for pack 7.
Here are all the parts.
Added the intercooler and radiator and built up a front suspension unit.
Then built the other unit and added a support to the tub.
Now added the shift lever and balance lever assembly to the cockpit and mounting it onto the floor.

Thanks for looking.

Pack 8

This pack mainly deals with fitting the front suspension components and test fitting the assembly into the monocoque. Also panels were fitted to the front, rear and on the inside of the assembly together with the master cylinders for clutch and brakes followed by the pedal assembly to the cockpit floor.

Thanks for looking.

Pack 9

With this pack the cockpit floor is fitted together with the brake/clutch reservoirs. The other front wheel and tyre is also put together but the majority of the work involves the front brakes and suspension/steering components being attached to the monocoque.

Thanks for looking.

Pack 10

Not too much to do this month. First the brake calipers were assembled together with the brake disc. Once done I added the pipework to the radiator ducting, this was made easier by having the thin wire inside the pipework keeping the correct shape once bent.
Once the hub was built the disc and calipers were added then the shock absorbers were built and tubing added to the t piece.

That's all for now, thanks for looking.
