Time for an update of what's happening on AP2289....

Craig's boys have been working at finishing the splash moulds so that my 289FIA body shape can be replicated.

Now that that process is largely complete, attention can return to progressing further AP2289.
Here's the rear section of the body with carbon/kevlar stiffening ribs (same as what is done on the 427 bodies) and also the complete underside of the body is coated with a carbon/kevlar layer.




...and....




Chassis trial buildup has also started. The front suspension is being trial-fitted to the monocoque.




Fabrication of the exhaust primaries and the under-car exhaust is underway as well.

Cheers,
Glen
