I have spent alot of time working on my motorcycle car lately, and have not had a chance to report. Here I am getting some pictures so I can get a handle on what the rough dimensions of my car will be.
bushings for the rear suspension in the making.
Here are the final rear suspension bushings. Eventually they will be welded into the chassis.
I made some updates to my chassis model. At this point I have a reasonable idea how I will capture the engine and rear suspension mounting points with the chassis.
Here I am making the rear suspension pivot pin. I rescued this metal bar from the Black Hole.
Here I am putting some 1/2-20 threads on the rear pivot pin.
Today this cat was pretty vocal about wanting to join the team.
I decided to give him a shot so he could showcase his skills. Unfortunately it turns out he was all talk. I told him he might be a better fit as a gopher killer on the farm.
Here I welded a nut on the end of the pivot pin so I can tighten it up.
This is the final rear suspension pivot pin. Part one down!
The final fit up of the rear suspension pivot pin and bushings. This went together very nicely. Next I am going to get to work on the chassis members that will capture the lower engine mounting points.
