Drawings
I’ve included drawings for some of the parts I made. Hopefully, these will give you a big head start if you decide to fabricate things in the same fashion that I did. I’ve tried to update them to reflect what I ended up with (or the way I would do it “next time”) so they are the result of my trying things, and in most cases updating it so it works better.
These drawings were made using my car as a pattern. Car-to-car variations may make alterations necessary, but I suspect that isn’t the case. If you do make parts based on these, I would appreciate any feedback on how they worked.
I was hesitant to put the drawings on-line because I was worried about potential liability if you built the part and bad things happened as a result. But I will trust that you will hold me harmless from any liability in that case. You’re on your own! All I know is that these parts have worked fine for me.
I posted these as a good will offering to help others be successful in building their own Z8. If you have the intent of making any of these parts commercially, contact me first.
Here’s a list of many of the parts that I used, along with the part numbers and source of the part.
Only one more section of this to go!
