David, these are all part of the information packet that would have been sent to potential Arntz customers around 1980 (about the time Arntz went under). They're really nicely done and do show a front suspension that probably never made it to a production car. All the Arntz and Butler cars were originally set up for the MGB front suspension. Even my car, an Arntz Type 4 made a few years later, still has the MGB setup. You'll notice that on the "Plan A" drawing (also from 1980), the plates for mounting the MGB crossmember are shown on the frame.
