The "Big Problem"
Here is the issue. CSX4000 body trying to fit down on an original style chassis. Anyone got an idea how to get it to fit? It is catching here. Maybe I should cut the tube off.

Hi-Tech pics
Fiberglass is hitting tube. Body is already as far forward as it can go. Do I shave the tube or the fg?

Shell Valley build
The 390 FE (formerly owned by Bob Brown) was removed from the frame so that all of the mounts (engine, roll bar, shoulder harness, oil filter, etc.) could be final welded and the frame painted. The oil dipstick tube was relocated to the outside of the lower alternator bolt.

Arntz / Butler door
This is the final version of the Arntz / Butler door. The inner and outer fibreglass panels conceal a 2 x 4 x 0.120 wall steel tube for crash protection and rigidity. A VW door latch, striker and handle let you in and out. A plate is welded on the front, to which the hinges bolt and adjust. The hinges are press formed from 1.5 x 0.5 solid steel bar and swing on delrin bushes. Unique to the Arntz Type 4 are the Mercedes door pin and socket (just above the latch) that solidly ties the door to the rest of the cage surrounding the passenger compartment.

Arntz tranny tunnel
Shown here is the removable section of the tranny tunnel. With the big engine setback in all the Arntz / Butler cars, you can remove the transmission while seated if you desire. Only a few very late Butlers had this and all Arntz Type 4 cars. I have no idea what the many cutouts are for  Also shown are the two triangulation tubes that connect the center of the cowl hoop to the 2 main frame rails for increased rigidity. The 3rd leg of the roll bar (not shown) also attaches to the same point on the passenger side frame rail. This is Arntz Type 4 only as well.

Fuel Line -Hard Tube Steel Adapter to 6 AN Flex Line
To ensure I use all steel, I had to use different vendors, Aeroquip hard tube compression fitting and Earls Auto fit hose end, Russell fuel hose, but all coated steel material for a reliable leak free fuel connection. This is intended as a street application so NO aluminum line is used. Remember, aluminum hard line may not be D.O.T. legal for the steet in your State!!

Rear of lower link arm
This looks like it will bind if the axle moves up at all, will probably have to be rounded off. The arm has two welded bends in it so I doubt I can replace it accurately with a tube.
