Having now sorted out the issues with suppliers of parts, we are now getting much closer to having the prototype built ready for testing and demonstration.
The chassis, laser cut from 3mm alluminium sheet by Hamilton's Fabrications has been fitted out with the running gear, suspension and central braking system.
In the last week, we have test fitted the support components for the gas turbine engine and have checked the cable runs and fuel feeds to the engine.
These are now ready for instalation once we collect the engine mount this time cut from 2mm aluminium sheet and support brackets which are being manufactured again by Hamilton's Fabrications. These should be ready by Jan 26th and we should then have photo's of the completed car (with the exception of bodywork). This will take much longer to develop and perfect!!
We now have a site where we will post the photo's and video's of the cars development which can be found at http://mach2hamster.snapfish.co.uk/ and enter the following 'room code' mach2.
Enjoy.
