| Rob and I mounted
the front suspension pieces today. It took a bit of hacking and
cutting on the chassis to get the turrets in place but things lined up
nicely. Now that the suspension is in place, we can work around it
and fabricate the radiator, sway bar and brake ducts mounts.

the sheet metal in the engine bay.
