The little parts in the above picture are parts of the control arms. Notice the 2 extra 1/2 shaft axles on the right side of the picture. They will be polished too.

Remember the chassis was COMPLETELY taken apart on Wednesday? Well, here it is this morning. We hope to have the foot boxes enclosed today. Not sure if we will have time, however, as we have to deliver 2 cars today.

Here you can see some parts that are about to go into the car.
On the far left, you can see the gas tank. It is made from stainless steel...like all of our gas tanks. We hate corrosion and boogers in our gas tanks.
Right in front of the gas tank are the insides of the foot boxes and an extra fire wall. On the very right of the picture, you can see the belly pan. The belly pan is the true secret to the incredible stiffness of the chassis. It closes the box. It is made from 1/8 plate aluminum. All of these parts were cut out on the water jet.

Here are the 1/2 shafts out of heat treat and assembled. The bolts they sent us were too long, so I just had Sandwich put together one of them (until Monday when we can get the right length bolts) so I could get pic posted. Notice the polished ones are not assembled yet. I didn't want to scratch them in the test drive.
