Dang, Buzz. Not only was that post exceptionally well-written, it was authoritative to boot! Two small issues that tend to irritate me are the pedals that come down from the cowl, instead of up from the floor, and wipers that park to the wrong side. Straight up and down radiators have already been posted. Those, I think, could be fixed, if you were really determined. The shape problems probably can't.

Ride Height Varibility

The concern is that if the car is set up to look "good" in terms of tire to wheel opening you could end up with a potentially dangerous geometry condition. These cars are spooky enough when they are set up correctly, they can become un-driveable with the front or rear roll center way out of specification. I am probably prejudiced by the fact that original cars were different at every corner in terms of tire to body because the bodies were so far off. The frame and suspension points were very good and symmetrical however, so that is what we use. Manufactures are generally pretty careful about the pick up points so they are not nearly as variable as a body opening because that would not be treated with the same care and repeatability. |
