Today on StanceWorks, the team embarks on an epic journey to build a custom tube chassis for an F40 like no other. With all the necessary materials in hand, they dive headfirst into the meticulous process of crafting a chassis from scratch. This isn't just any F40; it's destined to become an F40 Evo or F40 XX, pushing the boundaries of what's possible. Utilizing measurements from Nigel Mansell's F40, they meticulously set up the Bodywork on the chassis table, laying the foundation for what's to come.
Precision is key as they use parts from Senot to locate the bodywork and tube work with utmost accuracy. Welding becomes a crucial skill as they assemble tube stands designed for strength and functionality. The team's attention to detail shines through as they ensure the rocker panels are centered, tapered correctly, and securely clamped in place using innovative can't twist clamps. Every measurement is scrutinized multiple times to guarantee symmetry and alignment, setting the stage for a flawless build.
In a stroke of genius, they turn to a CAD model of an original F40 chassis for reference, allowing them to plan the build with unparalleled accuracy. By combining 3D models and scans, they visualize how all components will come together, ensuring a perfect fit. This CAD model serves as a guiding light, steering them towards building a chassis that not only meets but exceeds expectations. The team's passion and dedication shine through as they push the boundaries of automotive craftsmanship, creating a masterpiece in the making.
