Since the KV High Mileage Team has one official follower, I figured an update was in order.
The top picture shows the steering pieces ready to be welded up. After the aluminum bits are welded together and to the car, we can weld the front axles on and tabs to fasten the tie rods to.
The bottom photo shows the axle in place with the sprocket, flywheel and brake disc mounted up. I machined the key slots in the axle the other day so I can stay ahead of Rich, who is coming in on Open Shop Night to work on the car. He's going to be the driving force behind keeping this project going. He's also turning out to be a pretty good fabricator. That's one of the real pluses of this project. Lots of engineering that you have to be able to build and keep within the budget.
So we're making a little progress. When school resumes, we'll have to see what we're going to do about a team and if I can find some help to run this project.
