904-068
July 1, 2003
Action 904's. Danny
(067), Jack (068), and Mark (119).
Cutting and fitting
the floorboard.
When the
floor is made, all the cutouts for the suspension pieces have
to be re cut and trimmed.
The cockpit seat
housing is now fit to the chassis and the floor. Now the rest
of the body has to fit around them.
When we
made the molds, we left extra material at every seam. The
extra material helps when we have a crashed car and are attaching
the new parts to the old.
This seam will
be cut and fit to original dimensions.
These arrows point
to the original seams joining the cockpit to the front nose
section. These will be attached with 1 3/4 oz matt (original
type construction).
This is the seam
between the floor and the left front inner fender.
This is the joining
panel connecting the cockpit section to the right front inner
fender.
Jack is now cutting
the seams where the roof will be connected to the floor via
the door jam.
A little saw action.
A nice seam, this
will be glassed later.
Jack is
using clekos to hold the panels in place.
Bingo
cleko!
Clekos
are our best friends when we're fitting bodywork.
We have lots of
friends.
