Here you can see some parts that are about to go into the car.

On the far left, you can see the gas tank. It is made from stainless steel...like all of our gas tanks. We hate corrosion and boogers in our gas tanks.

Right in front of the gas tank are the insides of the foot boxes and an extra fire wall. On the very right of the picture, you can see the belly pan. The belly pan is the true secret to the incredible stiffness of the chassis. It closes the box. It is made from 1/8 plate aluminum. All of these parts were cut out on the water jet.
