This is another shot from the driver's foot box. Everything was done on CAD to make everything fit. We digitized the body, the engine, the transmission, and the differential! We would have never got anything to fit without the CAD files in Solidworks.

In this shot, you can see the front and rear brake hard line snaking down the inside of the driver's foot box. In an original 427 Cobra, there are 6 brake hard lines. The control arms are so long on this car, we only have 2 hard lines--one front and one rear. They then "tee" to the flex lines and out to the calipers.
