First item on the agenda is to build out a fixture or jig that uses the front frame sections from the Honda S2000 I obtained previously as reference points. This fixture will then be used to locate the upper control arm and strut mounting points which will then be transferred onto the new tubing members when we get to that point.
Next, laid out the mounting points for the S2000 front subframe onto the new tubing rails, milled out the holes, and then tack welded the threaded bosses in for the mount bolts.
Also spent some time figuring out the mid section of the chassis layout. Captured the dimensions required and had my brother draft the layout in AutoCAD. He was able to print out the rendering to full size using his plotter which will be great when it comes to laying out the tubing. Will share this with the next post......
