More pictures.

Sorry I haven't posted pictures in a long time. We have just been really busy around here--as usual. The pictures I am going to post will be somewhat out of order--sorry!

Here we are fitting the seat into the car. When you sit in one of these cars, the forward apex of the rear wheel is actually in FRONT of the head of the driver. The wheel base of 90 inches is extremely short. We didn't have much room to work with and so the seat area became a very difficult part of the car to design and engineer.
