A few details...

1. Steering is via the front wheels, two rods providing control via the
steering wheel and a central 'god' wheel.
2. Independent suspension on all four wheels via four heavy springs, one one
each wheel (springs similar to the original super car).
3. Drive to both front and rear wheels as well as the engine, along with a
new unit to hold each wheel on (which have massive 4 inch tyres).

Are you able to post any pictures of these (axle drive unit)? I'd be interested
in seeing them! Are they basically universal joints, or constant velocity
joints (like original super car)?

4. Five forward gears and one reverse.
5. Two air filled cylinders to lift and lower the boot (like the new super • car).
6. Instructions for two variations using the same chassis.
7. Instructions to build in the optional pneumatics add on pack to create a
rear crane arm.

Thanks for the details!
