GBS ZeroGT Gen 2 SVO

My GBS ZeroGT build is under way. I just got the first photos of my actual chassis before going to powdercoat.  I have had one modification to the basic chassis; I needed extra clearance on the RH side of the engine bay to clear the turbo package on my SVO 2.3l engine.  When I met Richard Hall of GBS last month at Sonoma, CA, and we discussed my goal of fitting this engine combo and we arrived at the solution of creating a "dogbone" diagonal strut as part of the top chassis tube on the exhaust side of my engine.  I've also mocked-up the location of the chassis tubes around my engine as it sits on the stand.   Hopefully I can keep my metric and SAE measurements correct!

 

Yesterday I drove down to Oregon to pick up the build trolly so that I can keep the chassis at a comfortable height and roll it around in my garage while I build it up. As I was driving down the Hood Canal on US 101, which is a particularly beautiful drive, I was dreaming about driving it in my new 7.
