GNEriC (The generic GN project)

Third build journal so plans are in the hatching stage. In my
mind, I wanted to keep this as simple and basic as possible
(Like the GN's were) and aim for light... And then the WuxiFeFo
Differential came up cheap. Bum, there goes that plan.
So to start the build journal I rough sketched my ideas in CAD.

The fuel tank will have to be relocated a bit

That's a familiar looking set up.....(but you know that the GN
cars generally had a locked diff) ! lol

Not a locked diff on GN. Solid axle.

Is nothing in your kitchen sacred? Look forward to seeing the
finished kart. Double igloo! I mean trailer next?

This one is supposedly simple Chris, but I am going to attempt a
bonded weld free chassis if I can figure it out. I dare say it
will turn out into another journey. I will probably video some
of my failures and success as always as I go as it is easier and
more informative than the written word often.

Nash and Godfrey hated cogs
Built a car with chains and dogs
And it worked ! but would it if ?
They had built it with a diff.
