TheGarfather 105 Posted February 19, 2021 I wish I had 3d printer and some skills. I would prefer that it was one piece and less ugly, but this have to do for now. Function over form. 🙃Belts run very smoothly. Can't wait to drive it 😁 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheGarfather 105 Posted September 5, 2021 I've hit a few bumps and started a new project for some reason I can't understand or remember. I haven't forgotten about this in case anyone should care or wonder. Just working on something completely different but very similar right now. 🙄 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But with a shaft drive line the chassis can be prone to torque twist, so with a belt and a transverse motor should do the trick. And it's not until now when I got a new job about a year ago that I can actually make this car. I work for a company that makes fighter jets among other things. The equipment and machinery I have at my disposal is beyond anything I've ever dreamed about 😊 Oooooo. Curious about that company. I have dealing with several companies that build or supply parts for fighter jets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not at liberty to answer though lol. Rest assured, it's not aircraft-related. My apologies for taking this thread off-track. Please carry on, very interesting project! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd love an Audi S1 RX, but maybe an old skool S1 with the livery used by a friend's dad back in the 80s. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
