| The
chassis for Toney's AB400 will be as hi-tech as they come.
We'll be building a custom chassis complete with a pinch
nose open wheel front end and a complete Heidt's IRS rear
suspension. |
|
|
|
| To
get the body to fit a '32 style frame, we'll need to do
some cutting. Before cutting though, we put numerous
braces in the body so it will hold it's integrity. |
|
|
|
| Here
you can see the section we cut out of the body where the
rear kick up is on a '32 chassis. |
|
|
|
| Since
we had a chassis in the shop, we dropped the body down on
it to get some bearings of where we need to begin. |
|
|
|
| To
start it off, we'll begin with a pair of '32 rails in the
jig. |
|
|
|
| Jaysun
starts the boxing process by tack welding the plates on. |
|
|
|
| The
rails are smoothed and back in the jig. |
|
|
|
| Jaysun
starts unpacking all the Heidt's goodies. |
|
|
|
| At
this point, we decided to re-group with a fresh set of
rails that we'll box once we have modified the frame. We
set the body back on and whack off the end of the rails. |
